What Faith Can Do

Posted in Christian Life

What Faith Can Do by Kutlass Everybody falls sometimes Gotta find the strength to rise From the ashes and make a new beginning Anyone can feel the ache You think it’s more than you can take But you are stronger, stronger than you know Don’t you give up now The sun will soon be shining You gotta face the clouds To find the silver lining I’ve seen dreams that move the mountains Hope that doesn’t ever end Even when the sky is falling And I’ve seen miracles just happen Silent prayers get answered Broken hearts become brand new That’s what…

Commandant’s Own & Silent Drill Platoon

Posted in Military Life, and Photography

Just a few pictures from Friday morning’s presentation.  I took so many pictures, but I had to narrow it down to just a few… We’ve enjoyed listening to the Commandant’s Own practice each day here on base.  It was great to be able to go watch both the Commandant’s Own and the Silent Drill Platoon.  We sat on blankets right by the parade deck.  The kids loved it.  The atmosphere is so different from the evening performance at 8th & I.

Foto Friday Challenge: Squares

Posted in Photography

Once again, we took to nature to find our challenge for this week ~ squares.  For the most part, I tried to find things that were a bit different than last week.  Other than the first photo, we found these items while we were out in the desert working on Munchkin’s dirt bike skills.  She does a few lessons, and then we look for things for the photo challenge.  It’s a lot of fun. For more Foto Friday Challenge, head over to Renaissance. Check out some of my past Foto Friday Challenges.
