Mountain Dew in Mammoth

2008-08-07T22:12:00.000-07:00

Awe .....Fresh air.. Blue skies ....Mountain dew...When we were hiking in Mammoth the past few days,I kept thinking "How can people NOT believe in God?" I was in the wilderness with real animals! It wasn't Knotts or Disneyland where everything is controlled when animals move. I was a little nervous walking and not knowing if a bear or mountain lion was going to stop by.Then I realized that I needed not to fear anything.It is but another reminder of how the Lord takes care of us. We are never alone..even in our darkest moments..He has given us His Spirit and His Word. He will direct us ...

Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding :in all your ways acknowledge Him and He will make your paths straight -Proverbs 3:5-6

OH HAPPY DAY !!!!!

2008-08-03T20:18:00.001-07:00

"For nothing is impossible with God." Luke 1:37

Today marked the celebration of the gift of life! Though we have experienced a few emotional weeks, we are amazed at the Lord's constant reminder that He is in control and His timing is perfect! Juan's 47th birthday today was a day full of love, family...and cake! How blessed we are to have such special people in our lives! Thank you for your prayers and always remember how precious each new day should be to each of us!

62 years and going STRONG ~

2008-08-03T20:08:00.000-07:00

Defeated by the OC ...again...

2008-02-16T22:04:00.000-08:00

Today we (Woodcrest) had our 2nd CIF game today..What an amazing game.We were on the edge of the bleachers.Last year we lost by 1 point and this year ,well the game was tied until the last 4 minutes of the game when Ontario Christian scored 2 and the end result was OC 3 and Woodcrest 1 .....
Needless to say we were defeated once again.. Woodcrest Girlsgave it their best and we had a fun filled family day that we will always remember !

A Precious Gift

2008-02-12T22:07:00.000-08:00

This evening I met the newest member to our family.."My Grandparents 11th great grandchild".Sounds overwhelming and it is... The excitement and joy of holding a newborn baby but also witnessing the joy that it brought the proud great grandparents.A miracle that two generations meet.The circle of life and making each moment count. Welcome Baby Gabriel Michael ...ps. that is Great Grandpa's hand....

Jon & Jon -SENIORS --YEAH ~~

2008-02-11T21:48:00.000-08:00

Meet Jonathan G.

Both are Seniors at Calvary Chapel Murietta ..It was quite funny to see their faces when I showed up with my Woodcrest Sweatshirt on...A little insight, both schools play each other in sports ..Needless to say, Woodcrest sure prepares when we play Girls Soccer..It was a fun shoot and both SENIORS were a bit nervous in the beginning and then became Supah Models after awhile !! What fun!!

Meet Jonathan B.

Meet Matthew !!

2008-02-11T20:33:00.001-08:00

In addition we had the pleasure of enjoying Gods Beauty...It was amazing watching the sun shine through the trees and feeling the brisk air.. As I told Liz "I could do this every saturday morning"..

Meet my grandpa... 80ish and still strong..A man of wit,energy,passion and love for his family especially his wife of 62 years(my grandma).For over 35 years I can remember a man that was a hard worker,a man that was honest,loyal and true love for God ,his family and country . Now ,I am grateful that my kids have the same experience and memories that I have in knowing my grandpa~~~

VIP is the only way to go !

2007-10-08T22:03:00.000-07:00

Well,that is true when you are talking about dedicated workers who love their job....This cannot be disputed ! VIP has individuals that have been with McDonalds for 20 years! WOW ! Our individuals are always ready to take on new tasks and they desire to learn. It seems now a days it can be a little rough on an employer to find employees that are willing to do entry level positions...Anyways ,I can go on so check it out at www.vipsolutions.com

Sammie is two!

2007-09-13T22:05:00.000-07:00

My youngest niece just turned 2! Need I say more ...All she wanted during the hour and half of taking pictures was a lollipop! "Give it to her", I said ....Well,then she wanted another one.Of course I am the auntie and I did..I had to stop when her mom told me that she was going to leave her with me for the rest of the weekend ......

A Mother's Love

2007-09-13T21:50:00.000-07:00

I don't know if I am a little sentimental due to my kids growing so fast right before my eyes...But, my heart melts everytime I see a picture like this. Throughout this shoot,Lucca was always looking for his mommy and was assured everytime he saw her. It is just a reminder to me that we as believers are always assured that our Father is there.....

Engaged to be married !

By this time next year this couple will be Mr.&Mrs...
