Simple, Beautiful Moments

I have been focusing more lately on savoring all of those beautiful little moments that make up life and last Sunday was filled with them.

We visited the Deep Fork Wildlife Refuge in Okmulgee after church.

The sun was shining, the kids ran, it was beautiful.

Nick and I held hands as we walked on the Railroad Trail to the River Overlook.

I just kept sighing.

That moment was perfect.

This man is amazing.

We came home and the air filled with the sounds of kids laughing as the day faded away.

Of course the day was filled with normal stuff also, correction, fighting, and so on, but I feel like that stuff just makes the beautiful moments stand out even more.

Kids playing on a rope swing while the sun sets behind them.

I did not want to go inside and make dinner.

I felt like I would miss something.

Life is filled with so many beautiful moments, I want to cherish as many as I can.

Working late

When I found out my husband would be working later than usual last night, I knew I could either sit and watch the seconds tick by or do something to kill a chunk of time.

We chose to kill some time.

We have been pretty mild this summer in Oklahoma but this week got hot.

When it is hot here I find water to be the only way to go when you want to go outside.

Adding a sprinkler to their rope swing was a big hit last year so I knew they would enjoy it again.

What do you do when your husband is working late?
