More Favorite Things

Sometimes life interferes with the best laid plans.  i had intended to post a favorite thing every day for 100 days but, unfortunately, i am behind by 5 days.  So that means that i will post 5 favorite things today!  They are in no order of favorite-ness .

i have always loved this picture.  It was taken at Thanksgiving about 9 years ago.  This is my granddaughter, Beanie, trying to look into the birdbath in my yard. 

This picture was taken 5-6 years ago in Southern California and shows my son jumping waves.  He always has had a thing for jumping the waves and i think that was his first time to see the ocean.

This is The Eagle and Child pub in Oxford, England.  It was the place where The Inklings, including C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien met with friends to discuss their latest literary endeavors.  We visited there in 2005.  Such a wonderful memory!

My son and his bride, taken at their Kansas reception the summer of 2011.  Her dress was so beautiful!

One more beach picture ~ the 3 youngest grandchildren who live here on the beach.  They were quite a bit smaller then, and how they loved to run and play in the waves even though it was only about 55-60 degrees out!

i hope you've enjoyed a few more of my favorite things.
