RAIN!!!!!



Praise God for the RAIN!! Falling asleep to the sound of rain pounding on a tin roof is a wonderful thing here in West TX.
I took a break from school today to go take pictures of our creek. The creek that is usually DRY!! It was full of water. Joshua and Joy waded in it a little. The water was over Joshua knees in some places. Its such a nice thing to walk around the pasture taking pictures of God's blessing. The sound of frogs croaking, the dog splashing through the water, shouts of glee coming from happy children playing in the creek, the smell of rain in the air, nice clean white horses once again. Most people would see these pictures as a nasty muddy creek, but as a ranchers daughter here in West TX, I see these pictures as Gods blessing, sending rain to dry ground, water to wild animals and beauty soon to come with abundant wild flowers and green grass. Thank you God!!

Amen about the rain!

It's got to be tough being a farmer or rancher and have to deal with a bad economy AND weather at the same time.

kinda wish I had a taller car when it comes to driving in the puddles.

We got a little over 2 not sure exactly how much though. Yes Jamin I agree about the car, although sometimes it just doesn't matter Patty got our van stuck in the mud before lol we thought about going mudding in our truck.
