Big Sky Country

No, we don't live in Montana but not a day goes by that I don't look up at the sky in absolute awe of where I live. Here are some fun images I took the other day while driving in my car. Yes, not safe I guess. But I wasn't actually holding the camera to my face. Kind of point-and-shoot -ish. My favorite is the one where I actually managed to catch the plane that happened to be flying overhead.

Appreciate the gorgeousness that lies right in front of you!

Happy Late Fourth of July

I honestly did celebrate it, and because I managed to stay up as late as we did to celebrate it, I feel I am a bit behind in my regular check list of to do's. But, it was great. Last year, I was big and pregnant with our third. Not that I wasn't enjoying myself on the fourth, but it was a lot different this year as we not only find ourselves in a beautiful home, we have wonderful friends whose relationships have changed our experience here to a better one, we have goals and things we are so excited to achieve...and we do it all under the premise of a country that ENCOURAGES you to pursue your dreams!

Tim and I have really made our goals something worth achieving and his infectious optimism has made me truly believe that it is possible! I am so excited about the prospect of living out our dreams on a daily basis. I wrote this in my personal blog, but it's so true. Tim told me (he learned this from a seminar he attended) that we need to pull ourselves from the task of just doing and moving - but move to intentional motion and action. It's about acting and not reacting to life that allows for great success. And it is in this process that Tim and I currently find ourselves. It's thrilling to think of all we can accomplish. I will never forget the day Tim and I got married, he looked me straight in the eye and in complete and utter sincerity and seriousness said, "You and I can do absolutely anything. Together, we are unstoppable." And I believed him then, and do so even more today. Can you get a sense of how truly happy and optimistic he is. There couldn't be another soul in the world that could be better for me than Tim is. I am truly blessed.
