Danny and I took a couple of days off to get away together.... Just quiet, simple "us" time.
I thought I would share a little bit of our trip...mainly in pictures.
- Take your picture with Bob {our kids will understand this one =)
- Walking- The old fisherman's wharf .
- Us someday.
- I love little hidden away places.
We found this very fascinating. Restoring an old tower.....Oh....how I would love to own a property like this.
- We walked for hours.
- We sit by an open fire.
- dreamed big dreams.
- Sat and just watched the waves come and go.
We ourselves feel that what we are doing is just a drop in an ocean. But the ocean would be less because of that missing drop. - Mother Teresa
I could never stay long enough on the shore, the tang of the untainted, fresh and free sea air was like a cool, quieting thought. - Helen Keller
"We can’t direct the wind, but we can adjust the sails. For maximum happiness, peace, and contentment, may we choose a positive attitude."
Love this quote by President Thomas Monson.
We had a beautiful refreshing weekend dating each other.
We came home to a home full of sweet children and grandchildren.
- John and Libby came for dinner and the girls went swimming.
- Audrey's Happy Birthday- That was early in the week....just throwing that picture in....she was so cute!
Sam and Heidi spent the night....because Sunday morning we would be heading up to Yosemite. {we live much closer to the park so by staying the night they cut down their driving time on Sunday} Sam's Ward was in charge of the Sunday services at the little Chapel in the park.
Wonderful sweet little meeting. Sam conducted the meeting, Bree played the piano, The administration and passing of the Sacrament done by Sam & Denver, Heidi said a prayer, and I conducted the music. Just sweet.
Sharing a few pictures from our day-
We got there a little early {we were anticipating that it might take us a long time to get through the gate at the park...but it took only 5 min....so we had a little time before the meeting started.}
We have gone to the park for several years as a family to help with the serves there.....and it's tradition to have a picnic after Church.
Said the Savior:
“Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal:
“But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal:
“For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.”
What a beautiful world we live in....and to go from coast to mountain high in less than 24 hours....is a blessing and ......
You dear Danny, children & grandchildren....you are my treasures.
Happy Day
