Letter #1

Dear Reader,

If you know me, you know that whenever something bothers me in anyway, I always say, "I'm Going To Write A Letter," and I do- no joke. Usually, the letters are to describe a problem and generally present a solution; sometimes, the letters are to rant, and sometimes the letters are to present a compliment or concern. However, sometimes it's hard to find the intended addresses. So here are my undelivered letters- maybe you can deliver them.

It's undeniable that I have written many of these letters, in the form of texts, emails, and written letters, however, I have not kept an accurate count. For the sake of this LetterLog, we will start here with Letter #1. 

Sincerely,

I'm Going To Write A Letter

In honor of Winter coming to an end, here is one of my favorite winter photos- taken from Longmire at Mount Rainier after a four mile hike to the most amazing view I have ever seen of The Mountain (which wasn't technically a viewpoint) and this little guy was there just playing around and was fascinated when I looked and pointed my camera at him.

This seems to be happening a lot...

Obviously, we are just on the cutting edge...

Refreshing. Seems like all I see I Coca-Cola now- definitely not a bad thing! #cocacola #vintage (at Gruene, TX)

Why can't I take a photo like this...

They’ll just sell it to you.

"talk dirty to me"

An indescribable weekend. So amazed by the love and support of the people of Hazen, AR for my family. For 4 days I can't remember a moment when I went without a smile, a hug, or a new hot meal. Even more powerful was the sight at my grandfather's visitation and funeral where nearly the entire town came to celebrate his life- including people who had never met him but knew the influence he had on their own family. I'm so proud of my grateful, gracious grandfather, and I know he is loving his view and the talking he is able to do now. I love you. #FlyToJesus #Gracious #StirWhatchaGot

Today I chose Joy. Joy for the time with my family. Joy for the miraculous nature surrounding me. Joy for surviving a 5 mile hike up a mountain in snow boots. #Joy (at Mount Rainier National Park)

It's amazing how you can go back to a place and remember so much. Hello Ocean Shores. I've missed you. (at Ocean City, WA)

Just a small reminder of the Light that was given to us so many nights ago that still remains for us in order that we might have Light and shine this Light in the darkest of nights for others to see. My whole life is turned around. I was lost, but now I'm found. A Baby changes everything. #MerryChristmas #Christmas #riverwalk (at Riverwalk San Antonio)

Awesome Night on the San Antonio River Walk at Christmas. Here we witnessed a church service with Mary riding in on a Donkey and Joseph standing by as they make their way to the inn. (at San Antonio River)
