Sunday Stills- Morning

Mornings are my favourite time of day! I am an early riser, and enjoy the freshness of the new day, and all the sights and sounds of nature that accompany sunrise. I was hoping for a good colorful sunrise, but alas! No such luck this week. 

So here are some of the other things that delight me in the morning.

I made it to the barnyard before the rooster crowed 😁

 That "what are you doing here so early?" look!

Winter Wednesday

Winter solstice- the shortest day of the year- yay, we're moving towards spring now! These 3 photos were taken at 8 AM this morning.

We got just a little skiff of snow last night, hopefully it will stay so we can have a white Christmas.

Christmas Eve, there is a new moon, so the only light will be the stars and the Christmas lights throughout the land. And the light in our hearts as we welcome Him whose birth we celebrate.

The world in solemn stillness waits, to hear the angels sing.....

This shot, the clouds look like angel wings.

Orange Sky in the Morning

I woke up at 5:30 to this beautiful sky, and also this rainbow:

There was rolling thunder to go along with it, and of course, my border collies were in a hurry to get in the house and hide.

Sunrise

I'm a morning person. A new day is inspiring to me; you can shape your day and leave yesterday's woes behind. You can step outside and see the wonder of nature, created by God and feel His presence. You can enjoy the glory of the sunrise, the antics of the horses as they get their morning hay, laugh at Tess as she leaps and bounces to try to get Reba to play with her. Every morning I thank God for this beautiful land that I live in, and for all the blessings He has given me. For all the people who are too busy and caught up in the world and all its problems that they aren't happy, I give you this sunrise.
