“Life is full of beauty. Notice it. Notice the bumble bee, the small child, and the smiling faces. Smell the rain, and feel the wind. Live your life to the fullest potential, and fight for your dreams.” - Ashley Smith

When you feel like giving up and you feel like you are near the end of your rope, hold on. Don't let go. Don't get frustrated. Don't give up. No matter how difficult it is, no matter how impossible it seems, no matter how long it takes, just hold on. It is through our challenges that we push ourselves to grow and we truly do grow through times like those..... And through weakness, we are made strong.

Just a thought..... that came to me..... as I was struggling through some math problems. :)

Happy Wednesday Everyone!

Just a Note

Just a quick note.... My computer is currently down, so I don't know when I'll be able to upload more photos. Plus I am doing summer school at the college until the end of August.  I am uncertain as to when I will be posting again. Stay tuned. 

Have a wonderful summer everyone.

Opportunity

Opportunity.... 

Is a word that I would often times disregard in some fashion or another. But, not anymore. Opportunity... Was once a word that I would think of as "it would come again" And. "I can wait until the "next time" to do this, or to go see that." Well, maybe I could wait until the "next time." But,  that may not always be the case. It could be to late. 

Just today I was invited by a friend to spend a day in Vancouver, Canada at some point in the very near future.  I have really come to the realization that this life is short enough as it is. I should welcome all opportunities and take them all in with a big smile! I am not letting this opportunity go down.  I have a whole knew positive outlook on life now.  Things are changing. For the better. Many, many opportunities are coming. 

So. When opportunity comes knocking at your door, go for it!

Opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work. -Thomas A. Edison

 Never  lose an opportunity of seeing anything beautiful, for beauty is God's handwriting.  - Ralph Waldo Emerson 

Something to think About ......

"Everyone thinks of changing the world, but no one thinks of changing himself." ~ Leo Tolsto

A Wonderful Opportunity

We (as in our 4-H Club) had the wonderful opportunity to go up in a helicopter or plane and tour the Skagit Valley. It was an amazing experience, and I am truly grateful for the opportunity. The photos were the fun part.  Totally different then being flat on the ground - it was fun!  If you ever have the chance to go up in a helicopter/small plane, DO IT... :D

A Quote

Just thought I'd share this quote with you .


E.B. White once wrote - "I arise in the morning torn between a desire to save the world and a desire to savor the world. This makes it hard to plan the day."

Flowers & Hummingbirds

Shall I just admit... I haven't put a camera down in days... more pics to come later on, I assure you.

Portrait Time

I had the opportunity to photograph a friend and her siblings last week. It was a fun session and I hope you enjoy the pictures. Here are a few of my favourites.
