Portland Back the Blue

 


Awesome picture of an Oregon State Trooper in front of a "Back the Blue" billboard in downtown Portland. Unfortunately, this alliance with Portland Police did not last long, thanks to our DA announcing he will not prosecute rioters. 

Willamette River Fun

Nice relaxing day boating on the Willamette all the way past downtown Portland. We couldn't have asked for a better day!   




River beach spot in downtown Portland where "Riots for Revival" baptized many newcomers for Christ!

Grammarly

Combing through and editing 21 years of blog posts takes time! It would have been nice to have an editor from the beginning. I have a love-hate relationship with technology. Google has corrected my spelling for so long I no longer even try. Blogging is a quick way to jot and capture memories with thoughts and pictures. Now I have this golden tool!

All the pretty little horses!


Hushabye, don't you cry,
Go to sleep, ye little baby
When you wake, you shall have,
All the pretty little horses
Dapples and Greys, Pintos and Bays
All the pretty little Horses


Way down yonder
In the meadow
Poor little baby cryin' Mamma
Birds and the butterflies

Flutter 'round his eyes
Poor little baby cryin' Mamma


Hushabye, don't you cry,
Go to sleep, ye little baby
When you wake, you shall have,
All the pretty little horses
Dapples and Greys, Pintos and Bays
All the pretty little Horses

*This song was apart of bedtime CD that I played for Christian and Maddy when they were little tots. 






Emma asked me to take pictures of her Shleich horse set up! She uses her imagination every day to bring these toys to life. Every horse, rabbit, dog, and handler have beautiful names and personalities to match.
