Picture Puzzle Day

Catamaran
Lake Tahoe, 2009

We were fortunate to be out on a boat with Tom and Kathleen and their friends, Frank and Kay. Lake Tahoe is a beautiful lake. It's clear and blue and BIG. We saw so many wonderful things.that day. It is so wonderful when you can see the work of the Creator on every turn. There were wonderful beaches, glorious trees, ducks and gulls, a gorgeous BLUE sky, and mountains. A grand time was had by all! And yes, even with sun screen I got sunburned...DRAT!

Here is the link to JigZone so you can create and submit your puzzle. And Mr. Linky is available below for your convenience. Please leave a comment and join in the fun!!! I can hardly wait to put your puzzles together! Remember you can change the number of pieces you wish to put together.

The Simple Women's Daybook

I had such a wonderful weekend that I just wanted to share it with you all. After you visit here please visit Peggy at The Simple Woman and journey along the path of life we all share.

~~Outside my window...is a glorious blue sky (it's 5:00 p.m. I decided to do this Sunday evening instead of very early Monday morning when it's dark outside.)

~~I am thinking...Thank God for Grandparent's Day. Neil invited Grandpa and me to go to Grandparent's Day at the Evansville Children's Museum. We had a grand time!!!

~~I am thankful for...All my grandchildren. Real treasures.

~~From the kitchen...the crock pot has a pork loin in it cooking for dinner tomorrow.

~~I am wearing...capri pant with matching jacket.

~~I am creating...[still working on] The Book of Wit 'n' Wisdom for Jimmy and Kelly's Wedding

~~I am going...to have a restful week in which I can work on my summer picture album with all the pictures of our great adventures this glorious summer!

~~I am reading...The Return of the Prodigal Son by Henri J. M. Nouwen.

~~I am hoping...the weather continues to be so glorious.

~~I am hearing...kids playing outside in these wonderful days before Autumn begins.

~~Around the house...Ron is spraying the weeds in the garden and Sam and Duchess are lazily napping.

~~One of my favorite things...is to do eat out with family and we will be celebrating Roy's birthday tonight at the Olive Garden!

~~A few plans for the rest of the week: 1) Work on my vacation journal; 2) continue to progress with Jimmy and Kelly's Book of Wit 'n' Wisdom.

~~Here is picture thought I am sharing...
