Happy Sunday everyone! Hope everyone is having a great weekend. Today I give you a few quotes on patience!
If the person you are talking to doesn't appear to be listening, be patient. It may simply be that he has a small piece of fluff in his ear. ~ A.A. Milne
Patience and fortitude conquer all things. ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson
Patience and diligence, like faith, remove mountains. ~ William Penn
Like an old gold-panning prospector, you must resign yourself to digging up a lot of sand from which you will later patiently wash out a few minute particles of gold ore. ~ Dorothy Bryant

A few weeks ago we got to visit my brother and his family for a day of swimming and hanging out with Grandma.
My brother has 4 girls, age 11, 10, 7 and 3! Here is my Angel with her cousin K she is closest to her age, the 7 year old.
Being the only boy doesn’t deter my son at all. He just finds games to play with them, like step over the girls while they are laying in the sun!

This weeks assignment for In My Neighborhood Tuesday was water.
Living as close to the Rocky Mountains as I do, water often means rivers here. This is from a vacation we took to Estes Park in September of 2008. We stayed in these cute, if not somewhat rustic, cabins called Loveland Heights Cottages. All of their cabins are either hanging over the Big Thompson River or extremely close.
You can see below that from the back deck of our cabin we were about 3 yards away from the river! It was pretty cool to hear that water rushing by as you are drifting off to sleep!
Got some great water photos to show off this week? Or just love taking pictures in general?? Then head on over to Eighty MPH Mom and get your assignment for the week!

How little do my countrymen know what precious blessings they are in possession of, and which no other people on earth enjoy. ~ Thomas Jefferson
This is America. We can do anything here. ~ Ted Turner
When an American says that he loves his country, he means not only that he loves the New England hills, the prairies glistening in the sun, the wide and rising plains, the great mountains, and the sea. He means that he loves an inner air, an inner light in which freedom lives and in which a man can draw the breath of self-respect. ~Adlai Stevenson
Then join hand in hand, brave Americans all!
By uniting we stand, by dividing we fall.
~John Dickinson
Time is passing. Yet, for the United States of America, there will be no forgetting September the 11th. We will remember every rescuer who died in honor. We will remember every family that lives in grief. We will remember the fire and ash, the last phone calls, the funerals of the children. ” by President George W. Bush.
Amen!

Meet Ti! Formally know as Theisen this is my 14 year old Border Collie/German Sheppard mix. Yes he has stuck his head in the side of my husband’s lawn chair just to get some attention. We nicknamed him “Freak Dog” long ago as this is just one example of some of the odd things he does. Oh, and don’t believe him if he tells you he never gets any love around here at all!

Without labor nothing prospers. ~Sophocles
The world is moved along, not only by the mighty shoves of its heroes, but also by the aggregate of tiny pushes of each honest worker. ~ Helen Keller
