I {Heart} Faces Beach Fun.

This week’s I ♥ Faces photo challenge is “Beach Fun.”  We are not beach people.  Well, I’m not a beach or sun person.  Big J grew up in Florida and lived on the beach, but since moving to Texas 24 years ago, he has seen very little salt water.  The nearest beach to us is [...]

What We Have. A Review. (With Author Q and A)

Amy Boesky was always looking over her shoulder.  She knew a sharpshooter was following her, but she could never make visual contact.  Amy wasn’t alone; her two sisters and mother were also being shadowed.  Other members of Amy’s family (their black and white pictures hanging on the wall in Amy’s home) had fallen, and Amy [...]

The Verbena pic above is my entry in the Purple Parade in the Sphere of Color at Pixosphere.com.  I took this picture back in the spring when I got to take a solo drive through some beautiful parts of Texas and take pictures of the abundant wildflowers.  Do you have purple you can add to [...]

Warning. Teen in the House.

Well, it happened. Despite my protestations. Little J turned 13 yesterday. He’ll have a party for all the guys in the class after school starts.  For his actual birthday, a couple of friends came with us from church to eat CiCi’s pizza and play LaserZone.  He got lots of nice greetings in the mail and [...]
