What a beautiful ‘Scarlett’!

Somehow, she looks familiar.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. I wonder?

[yorkie]

Very touching, Sunny. Thank you for sharing it with us!

[JustAmy]

Isn’t she adorable?

Finished one task; time to tackle another.

Amy, I pinged Marissa to this - but don’t know if she saw it. This javelina came visiting, this morning - I am sure she would have enjoyed standing two feet from it, (behind the sliding glass doors, of course!)

Love Addyson wearing red.

I have fought a good fight,
I have finished my course,
I have kept the faith.
2 Timothy 4:7 (KJV)

Flowers of the Forest



Black Watch Piper

The Soldier

If I should die, think only this of me:
That there's some corner of a foreign field
That is forever England. There shall be
In that rich earth a richer dust concealed;
A dust whom England bore, shaped, made aware,
Gave, once, her flowers to love, her ways to roam;
A body of England's, breathing English air,
Washed by the rivers, blest by suns of home.
And think, this heart, all evil shed away,
A pulse in the eternal mind, no less
Gives somewhere back the thoughts by England given;
Her sights and sounds; dreams happy as her day;
And laughter, learnt of friends; and gentleness,
In hearts at peace, under an English heaven.

Rupert Brooke

REST IN PEACE, FALLEN BROTHER!

SSgt. Christopher W. Eckard, USMC, KIA Afghanistan 20FEB2010

I have fought a good fight,
I have finished my course,
I have kept the faith.
2 Timothy 4:7 (KJV)

Eternal Father, Strong to Save



Rest in Peace, fallen brother, rest in peace!
We who remain hold you in high honor.
Rest, fallen brother, in this sacred precinct;
We who remain keep this place sacred.
Rest, fallen brother, among these, your comrades;
We who remain keep the watch.
Rest, fallen brother, amid these who heeded the Nation’s call;
We who remain press the fight forward in your name.
Rest, fallen brother, lay down thy burden;
We who remain have taken up the torch.
Rest in Peace, fallen brother, rest in eternal peace!
