Baseball, My Favorite Player!!!!

Garrett @ First base.....

This is Blake our little catcher, he and Garrett have us in stiches during the game with belly slides, talkin to the players as they are batting and they always have a tale to tell. Here Blake was sharing how a rather large boy was clinging to the fence and it fell down because he was to...._at..... hmmmm, wish you could have heard him tell it....

More of Garrett, I am loving these shots and I can only hope to improve from here...yah... Prophotomom. I am not a professional but my son thinks I am...... (smiles)

This is my sweet ball playing boy!!!!

These were taken through the fence...not bad. It is hard to be inside of the game without being in the way and also the fear of the ball...yikes, I need to wear a helmet.....This is Nick our pitcher and he is also one of the Coach's sons, he is fast as lightening and boy can he steal a base on top of pitching a great game.

Here is my sweet ball playing boy on first base. I am learning new things about my photography and I am loving what I am learning. Please share your thoughts. Have a blessed day,

Tracy, daughter of the King!!!!

Have a blessed day

The Kingdom

Today's Scripture

“It is the Father’s good pleasure to give you the Kingdom” (Luke 12:32).

Today's Word from Joel and Victoria
Our God is an extravagant God. He loves to do exceedingly beyond anything we can hope for or imagine! It gives Him pleasure to pour out His abundance and goodness in your life. It gives Him pleasure to give you His Kingdom. What is the Kingdom of God? It’s simply God’s operating system, or His way of doing things. Throughout the Word of God, He reveals His principles and precepts for living the abundant life He has in store. When you follow His Word, when you do things God’s way, you get God’s results; you get His success and blessing. Choose God’s Kingdom today by following the Word of God. Romans chapter 14 tells us that the Kingdom of God is righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit. Do you need more joy and peace in your life? Follow the Word of God in everything you do and open your heart to His Kingdom. As you do things God’s way, you will get His results and walk in victory and blessing all the days of your life.

A Prayer for Today
Heavenly Father, thank You for Your hand of blessing in my life. Thank You for giving me Your Kingdom. I receive it by faith today and choose to follow Your Word in everything I do. In Jesus’ Name. Amen.

It's a rainy Monday Morning....

We have a slow steady rain with some grumbling going on this morning. I do love the rain as it washes away all the dust, pollen and yuck off the trees and flowers. We also want our pond filled to the hilt for the animals, come July and August it is scorching around here!!!!!

The school was having their first art exhibit and Garretts drawing was chosen to be on display, it was so neat to visit the gallery. I felt so inspired, like I was visiting somewhere else. It was great to see what creativity they have, I wish I could be as free to create, but there is too much junk I have to remember and it gets all jumbled up.

Friday Day, I spent the whole day at the school for field day. We played games, ate treats, laughed, some cried, some got sick!!!! But we had a great time. Now I have ordered pics and will put together a 12x12 album as a gift to Mrs. Farmer. She has been an awesome 3rd grade teacher and this was her first yr. I wish I could have her with Garrett until Graduation Day.

She is young, fun, energetic and knows how to bring the best out in Garrett, we just love her.

On a side note, please lift up her dad in prayer, he has had surgery and lost the lower part of his leg due to Diabetis and now it is attacking his hands. He is a Preacher and knows that God is not ready to take him home yet. (he is just 50)

Wow, where do I start? We had a Baseball Game friday night!!! Wow, wish I would have had a CF card in my camera! My superstar son hit in two RBI'S and caught an awesome air ball way out in center outfield. Talk about wow!!! Then to top it off they put him in to pitch the 6th and last inning!!! The score was..can't remember but we were 5 points ahead and they could have tied up the game. Our hearts were beating out of our chests, we were so nervous!!! You should have seen Garrett, taking big breaths and total concentration. I instantly started praying for persicion for him and that he didn't hit anyone with the ball. Well... their star heavy hitter was up to bat....yikes. He pitch and it was a ball, again, and maybe a strike, then it happened he hit him with the ball. The batter was furious!!! Hit the bat to the ground and stommped off. I said well, glad thats over we got the first hit out of the way. He then walked two more and some ran in and scored. Then here comes my friends son and a good player. This will decide the game...

Strike, foul, ball, ball, Strike, and Strike. He stuck him out and we WON the game. He was given the game ball for so many great plays. Wow, my heart settled down about an hour later, Carl was in the dug out and said he could barly watch he was so nervous.

We all went out for ice cream to celebrate!!!! The coaches complimented Garrett's abilities to us and one said, "That boy just amazes me!!"

Well as for today I have a list of to dos: Did I tell you all I love list!!!! I have my crop for CTMH and need to get my layout and kits ready to go. Does anyone need help on how to prepare for a crop? I can help
