An Afternoon Drive – Desert Style

Posted in Christian Life, Outdoor Adventures, and Photography

Project 365 – #240 When we head out into the desert, we always make sure we have plenty of water and some food.  In the hot summer months, we always make sure the air conditioning is working before we head out as the temps can be in the 110+ range.  It’s hard to imagine what the Israelites must have gone through while living in the desert for 40 years.  (Yes, it was a different desert landscape, but it makes me understand more of the hardships that they may have encountered living in a dry land.) They were disobedient/doubtful, yet, the Lord continued…

Desert Graffiti

Posted in Outdoor Adventures, and Photography

Project 365 – #239 Today, we headed out to do a little exploring in the Picacho Peak area.  During our drive, we came across a large area covered by some unique desert graffiti.  (This picture is an extremely small sampling of the graffiti area.)  The great thing about this graffiti is that it doesn’t damage the area.  In fact, this display actually uses the natural surroundings to create the graffiti.  We had heard about this area (and D had seen it from the air), but we’d never been to the desert graffiti location.  It was fun seeing all the creative…

Munchkin dreams of…

Teach Them Diligently

Posted in Christian Life, Family, Homeschooling, and Photography

 Project 365 – #235 You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your might. And these words that I command you today shall be on your heart. You shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise. ~Deuteronomy 6:5-7~ Project 365 – #236 It is often said that kids should come with parenting handbooks, but, in some ways, isn’t that just what the Bible…
