...These Are A Few of My Favourite Things...

...An afternoon on the lake with the siblings

...A swim in awesomely warm water

...A hot sun beating down

...Insane fluffy white clouds

...A God who loves [even] me

I love days like this -- laziness, relaxation... We went down to the lake this afternoon which was just gorgeous. I jumped in the water for awhile and surprisingly, it was warm!

And then I just laid looking up at the clouds. For some reason lately I've fallen in love with the clouds. They are [literally] insane! Maybe I'm a bit behind times, and just now in my life I'm noticing how cool clouds are.

...Or maybe its the fact that the skies are bigger up north, and the clouds are more beautiful. Yeah -- I think that's it... But I could sit for hours and look at them. Am I crazy? And of course, I can't refrain but to pull out my camera and take pictures.

They make me want to jump up and just grab them into my hands!!

But sitting there gazing at the clouds made my mind go to the Creator of all things -- including clouds. Isn't it amazing to think that He created those gorgeous clumps of fluffiness? And its even more amazing to realize that He created ME! And He loves me more than the most gorgeous of clouds!! Wow!

On a hot day, Fruit on a Cloud is just amazing! Ha, I never really thought of it that, as I talk about clouds, this dessert has the name "cloud" in it! Doesn't it look amazing? [ps. it is as good as it looks! It tastes like strawberry pie without the crust]. Come visit and I'll make you some!

...I talked to Amy on the phone yesterday -- about Greenland [and of course many other things!] But just talking to her made me realize the trip is coming up [soon]. And that gives me some great feelings of extreme excitement! But I shall contain that excitement for approximately 7 1/2 more days -- and than that excitement will turn into reality!

I'm sitting here starting to shiver in my wet clothes! Maybe it would be wise to change out of my swimming clothes next time before I go on the computer! Oh well... I guess I'll do it now :}

...That is my ramblings [and wise thoughts *ahem*] for the day...
