Growth & Life

Today marks a new season for our family. My little sister is engaged to the man that she loves & she is wearing a sapphire ring. She is dreaming & scheming her eau d'hippie wedding. I am in shock and awe and I miss her and want to hug her and talk her head off as she is trying to fall asleep in the bed, next to me. This was a shot of them cracking up at our wedding. Congrats, Pookie & Matthew! We love you and are praying for you!
I just love the colors of fresh fruits & veggies. They are just so beautiful to look at. Cooking is so much fun when it not only tastes good but is also pretty. Just a lil' something my mom taught me :) I love it when I actually set the new table for dinner. The other night we had some friends over & cut up those bright & delicious bell peppers for fajitas.
Almost all of my friends are pregnant at the same time... and it's such a wonderful & exciting time but it's also so weird to think that we are actually in that time of life. Where has the time gone? We are young mid-lifers, i suppose. Soon, the rooms will be full of beautiful, sweet smelling babies... perfect little mixtures of our friends, concocted by God. So cool.
