The Sun Will Come Out...tomorrow

When Jon and I arrived in the Ozarks for a long weekend to celebrate our 25th, it didn't look so welcoming. The lake was dark and the rain and winds were strong. It was still a pretty site as we stayed warm and dry and looked at it from inside our beautiful home. Our hope was that the next couple of days would improve. It did improve ...almost to perfection! Some of the favorite times of the weekend-A bald eagle flew in and landed on the tree just outside the house. That bird sat there in the rain for hours. We took a walk each morning we were there. I even got new shoes to improve my walking skills, but soon discovered my skills in walking are not impacted much by cute new shoes. Gotta get in shape!I beat Jon in our only game of cribbage.Quiet.Watching General Conference with no interruptions.Sitting out on the dock and absorbing all the warmth that the sun would allow.Taking pictures.The sun, and not a child or alarm clock, waking me up.Being with Jon.
