My Love

Tonight I enjoyed some much needed alone time with my husband. After a stressful day for our family, we were able to escape to the mountains.

I kicked Steve's behind, on an awesome, peaceful hike. He was desperately looking for wildlife, it was his only excuse that would get me to stop, slow down, and give him a rest. He succeeded. Look what we found.
I said a naughty when we first spotted it (about 12-15 feet away.) Then it wandered over to a salt lick.

I do not know what the Lord has in store for our family. But I do know that he guides and directs our lives. I know I must put my trust and faith in him. This scripture keeps coming to my mind:

"Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him , and he shall direct thy paths."
Proverbs 3:5-6

I wish I had more faith, but this I do know--I love my family, they are my JOY!

Oh Steve, what have we done? Four kids!!!! We are the craziest people around. I love you!

I had two goals for our date tonight; a good hike and a decent picture of us. I think we succeeded. I like these pictures!
