Pictures, the Son, so on and so forth...

I've been organizing pictures, and it's rather overwhelming. I just started working on 2009's pictures. So far I've deleted over 1,000 pictures. Deleting is so hard, though, because there will be pictures that are equally good but have different things that make them awesome and I want to keep ALL of them. Alas, I doubt my computer can acommodate all the pictures I would take...

Anyone have any photo organizational tips? ;)

Anyways, going through pictures, I realized that I'm really obsessed with the sun. Seriously, a rather large percent of my pictures are of the sun. Thinking about this, though, I need to be obsessed with the Son- the Son of God. I need to be looking at how different He is in the different angles of His personality and character. I need to be focused on His brightness, so I can reflect His image. I don't see how anyone can look at creation and not know the One who spoke, and created everything.

Here's a picture I took a few months ago, one of about 15 that took forever to narrow down to..

Forever in awe of HIS glory...

New additions, balls, and cuteness

We've had several new additions to our barnyard, as well as house. Four of our goats have kidded in the last month or so, and last Saturday we got a dog! So...

This is Girl. We haven't yet decided whether to re-name her or not... She is an Australian Shepherd/Border Collie mix. Very pretty and very high energy!

Girl has one blue eye and one brown eye. And she's obsessed with balls. This is Bunny. He was born on Easter morning, hence the name. My dad came in that morning and said he was a girl. When I went out later, in daylight, I saw that the girl was actually a boy...

And here I am holding Ricecake. Yes, my 5 year old brother named the kids this year.

(Oh, and my mom took this picture, obviously I didn't :).)

There are 3 more that I have yet to take pictures of...perhaps I'll post more pictures of the other kids later.

I'm sleepy.

Though the night is long...

God, you bring the sunrise.

From the rising of the sun to the going down of the same, the name of the LORD shall be praised. Psalm 113:3
