A Winters Walk

Last week Dad and I took advantage of the sunshine and went on a walk close by. Here are some photos along the way. 

 There was a few ponds with ducks swimming about, I have never really tried to take pictures of them before, and now I know it is a bit of work, they like to move fast and dunk under water often! :)

An Icy patch

I couldn't believe I got this one before the bird flew away!!

This was a little mysterious, not sure what it is but it was fun to take a picture of!! :)

Frozen leaf

And the path ahead!

There you have it! Thanks for reading!

The Season Of Fall

Fall is well on its way. Here are some things that come with the season.

The changing of colors, in the leaves of trees and bushes!

Lots of leaves on the ground!



Don't you love this photo? I wish I took it, but my camara is not that cool! :)

Rain.... Some times is a not so fun when it doesn't stop,

But other times I feel like this about the rain.... especially when you sing in it!! :)

The fall makes you want to wear these. Which I have just made, but that is a different post that is on my other blog!

One thing I could live without during the cold months is a cold, which I have at the moment. :(

Which makes me drink allot of this!!   But drinking tea is one of my favorite thing to do when it is cold out side, especially when you are reading a book!! Fall is beautiful and comes with a different way of living, compared to the summer months. And in a way I am excited for the change in weather but in other ways I will miss the sunshine and warm weather activities. So here is good bye to one season and Hello to the new!! Thanks for Reading ~RebeccA.

Doula Course

"The Professional Labor Support Course (PLSC) equips women to come alongside expectant families and provide physical, emotional, and spiritual support throughout pregnancy, labor and birth, and postpartum adjustments." ~From the ATI website

This November I am going (with two others from Church) to Nashville TN, to attend a week long doula course!! Followed by a 10 month study from home. This course is to teach us how to become a doula, through a biblical worldview. I have been looking into this for a few years, and this year they are offering the course.  Though I do not know where this knowledge that I will be gaining will take me, but what I do know is that there will always be a need for people who have the knowledge about babies and the processes that comes with having children. So stay tuned for more info.... or pictures from the trip, which ever comes first! :) ~Rebecca

Spring!!

In the Northwest we do not always have a nice sunny spring like some other places in the US. But you can tell when it is spring here because of the flowers that bloom. So when it is dark and dreary from all the rain, you can look to the flowers that you pass for some cheer. Well I have been thinking allot about how seasons changing. Not just in weather and plants but also in our lives. This verse has been on my mind Eccl. " For everythig there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven: " God has planned different seasons in our lives, times of joy, times of sadness and times of growth, but all are under His Will. So what ever the season in life, we can be comforted and thankful that God is in control of it all. I have been taking pictures of different flowers and growth around where I live. Here are a few that I have so far.

I love the Cherry Blossoms!!

Green leaves White Cherry Blossoms are also beautiful!

Of course Daffodils, bright and cheery!

Or the Pink Azalea!

Well I hope that the season of spring is one of sunshine and fun!! Enjoy the sweet smelling flowers around your home!!
