Father's Day

First off, Happy Father's day to my wonderful Dad!  I am so excited that he is coming to visit us again this month, we are gonna do some fun things--GLACIER BAY!!!!  And some in Juneau stuff too.  I so love Juneau, today after Steve and I had lunch with Ed, Larry, Kelly, Jacob and Dan, we walked around our pond out back, fiddled around in the front yard, and then went for a drive out the road.  It was so beautiful today, 74 degrees and sunny.  I can't imagine living anywhere else.
I of course took pictures, and I wish I could post all of them!  I was chatting with Darla at church today, and she was telling me all about her new Nikon D3000, I was so jealous, then I saw what my old D50 can do and I am just fine with mine.  A new lens maybe...........................  Anyway, on to pictures!





I have had so much fun watching the family of ducks living in our pond.  There are at least 3 females that take care of the babies, and we've seen as many as 10 babies.  Today there are 6.

                                       She has the prettiest color on her wings.

We have lots of plans to make our backyard special, next year it is going to be awesome!

How many pictures have I taken of this spot?? I can't seem to stop. 

I love Eagle Beach, it always amazes me that we have this beautiful spot; everytime we are there we are the only ones.  If feels like it is my very own special place.

We saw whales!!! 

I took lots more, but this is enough for now.  We found a little secluded parking spot and just sat there on the rock and watched whales.  It was heaven.  Today went perfectly with Brian's sermon on Genesis, I am in such awe of what our God can do.

Sunny Sunday in June

Sometimes I can't think of what to blog about, so I just go and look at what I have taken pictures of.  So far this month, it's been flowers.  Ahh.  I love to plant flowers, to look at them in my yard and in other peoples yards.  I love to look at them at the store. I can see some pretty lupin Steve planted behind our house from the kitchen, and sometimes can see the ducks in the pond.

We had Miriah's birthday at Lisa and Brian's house, it was nice.  Lisa made us a dairy free chocolate cake.. yum!  Erik picked out some extremely nice pots and pans for Miriah, and several of us went in on it with him.  She loved them.  :-)

Brian is out of town at a Pastor's conference, so asked Erik to teach today.  It was wonderful.  I would have been so nervous I wouldn't have even been able to remember my name... Erik definitely has the gift of teaching.  It is such a blessing to know that all my sons love the Lord, and are living their lives for Him.

Right now it's sunny, cool and fabulous.  Latecia just popped over for a few minutes, and is going to paint.  I just might have a new painting in my room soon!  :-)  I have a roast in the oven, and potatoes will soon be joining it.  Sunday family dinner tonight!
Yesterday it was cloudy, then another rainbow.  Juneau certainly is the place for rainbows.:-)

Jeanette Phillips had her baby boy-Timothy. I finished his blanket a week after the shower, my favorite one so far.

Ok, so posting these pictures is driving me crazy, they won't go where I want them to... I'm stopping.  It's a lot of photos anyway!
Till tomorrow.
