Last night in Maui and last sunset:

He is risen!

Matthew 28:1-10
After the Sabbath, at dawn on the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went to look at the tomb. There was a violent earthquake, for an angel of the Lord came down from heaven and, going to the tomb, rolled back the stone and sat on it. His appearance was like lightning, and his clothes were white as snow. The guards were so afraid of him that they shook and became like dead men.

The angel said to the women, "Do not be afraid, for I know that you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified. He is not here; he has risen, just as he said. Come and see the place where he lay. Then go quickly and tell his disciples: 'He has risen from the dead and is going ahead of you into Galilee. There you will see him.' Now I have told you."

So the women hurried away from the tomb, afraid yet filled with joy, and ran to tell his disciples. Suddenly Jesus met them. "Greetings," he said. They came to him, clasped his feet and worshiped him. Then Jesus said to them, "Do not be afraid. Go and tell my brothers to go to Galilee; there they will see me."

 

Happy Easter!

Hawaii ~ March 2008

Ka'anapali and Kihei, Maui

Ka'anapali Beach...view from the Ka'anapali Beach Club lanai. How wonderful to sip coffee outside and watch the whales in the morning.

Hawaiian sunset...one shot of probably 100. These never grow old.

OK, is it lame to have chosen over $100 in FABRIC as my souvenir?! Hubby wasn't impressed ~LOL~ but I LOVE the Hawaiian prints I brought home and can't wait to start sewing!

Kihei, Maui - sunburned and broke - time to go home.

Sigh. Last one. I promise.

I suppose it's too soon to discuss going back....

14??!!!

My babies are 14 today. FOURTEEN?! I count and re-count and it still adds up to 14. What a blessing they are to me and their dad. These are two young women of strong faith - young women who refuse to go to bed at night until they have spent time reading the Word of God and written in prayer journals. They are young women I look up to every day and thank God for.

I love you girlies!

Mommy

Overheard

Overheard at a track meet yesterday:

Lady 1: "Did you hear about the new law they're making?"
Lady 2: "No, what now?"
Lady 1: "They're making it a law so you can't drive with a dog in your lap no more."
(Not, there is much I could say at this point, but I will refrain.)
Lady 2: "You're kidding! That's stupid. Next thing you know, they'll have car seats for dogs."
Lady 1: "They already do! But it doesn't hurt anything to have my dog in my lap when I'm driving. It's just stupid."

I had to turn away so my silent giggling would not get the best of me. Have you ever seen people driving with dogs in their laps? YES! It's quite possibly more distracting than driving while on the phone. But, you are surely relieved that "They're making a law so you can't do this no more." :o) I believe these women really have their thumb on the pulse of California politics and am certain we can all take their word for it.
