Feeling Blessed

I try my best to look at each day as a blessing.  Obviously there are days and moments that can feel more burdensome than blessed.  Sunday was a day full of blessings for me.  There was nothing super extraordinary about the day, I just got out of bed knowing it was going to be a great day.  The sun was shining and I knew me and my dogs had a date.  Bella ditched me after church for a play date with a friend, Jerrod was biking, so it was me and my fur babies.

I dog-proofed the van, changed into my hiking clothes, and we headed back to the lake for another glorious hike.  

The woods are starting to come alive with green, the birds are singing, and the sun is SHINING!  It doesn't get much better than that folks!

Sweet Gypsy......staring intently on a flock of ducks.

My handsome little man!

Sunny blue skies!

Happy Happy Dogs!

He clearly thinks that life is good!

I am pretty sure that I could have just set up camp right there and hung out all day....but after 3 hours hiking I packed up my seriously dirty dogs and headed home.  They were worn out and full of sand.  (each requiring baths asap).

It is days and simple moments like this that remind me how thankful I should be that I have another day here on this earth to enjoy.

I hope you all were able to get out and soak up the sunshine this weekend.  It is amazing how good a little sunshine and fresh air is for our souls.
