God's Masterpiece


Today, I celebrate the lives of two phenomenal MOTHER'S, my Mamie and my Debbie. Some of you may remember me writing about my Debbie. She was the kind of MOTHER-in-law that every girl dreams of having. Nothing short of a woman with style and grace, she was my dream come true. Although she's no longer with us physically, she will always be in my heart and my thoughts.

The scene from above was taken on a little surprise trip that I set up for my husband on his 30th birthday. He had always dreamed of going to watch The Masters in full swing of things. Being that it's one of the most, if not the most, elite golf championship, I could only afford tickets for the practice rounds. But nevertheless, we were still able to see the masters of golf in action. My husband's love of sports was something that he shared with his MOTHER. Their bond was more than a MOTHER and son bond. It was a bond of friendship. I was always more than happy to have her come along whenever she wanted. And so, the three of us took a little trip. This is the way I will always remember her. She saw this beautiful tree out in the grounds of Augusta National. This is the perfect example of "stopping to smell the roses." The beauty of this photo steams much further than the beauty of the tree. It steams from the beauty of the moment and the beauty of my MOTHER-in-law.

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY
To all the beautiful MOTHERS in our lives!

Sometimes we are so busy with everyday life that we forget to appreciate the beauty that God has placed before us. Scenic Sundays are about stopping and smelling the roses. And while you're smelling those roses, take a picture so that others can share in your appreciation for the beauty of His creation. So pretty please come join us for Scenic Sundays. Maybe we'll see things in a different light.

Please feel free to join me any day.

What a sweet testimony to her! You can tell by the picture that she looked like she loved to laugh and have fun.

My husband's mom was awesome too. I was very blessed to have her for my mother-in-love.
