Happy Monday

This weekend Ryan and I went camping with our friends Sandi and Steve and their family. We had a blast and I definitely felt the fun the next day :) After camping I realized how my I enjoying being outside. I think we forget to slow down and appreciate the beauty around us everyday.

I love nature and I love taking pictures. Just wanted to share a few with you.

I like to think I'm art-sy. This was taken on a beach in Bol, which is a town on the island of Brac in Croatia.

The gorgeous sunset in Florence, Italy. One of the billion romantic moments while in Europe with Ryan.

From the airplane from Spokane back to Hollister, there was still snow down there.

The huge beautiful trees at Big Basin, from me and Sandi's annual camping trip.

Hello Spring! And many NEAT little flowers!

I found this quote and I love it!

The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life. Attitude, to me, is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, the education, the money, than circumstances, than failure, than successes, than what other people think or say or do. It is more important than appearance, giftedness or skill. It will make or break a company... a church... a home. The remarkable thing is we have a choice everyday regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot change our past... we cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude. I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% of how I react to it. And so it is with you... we are in charge of our Attitudes.

-Charles R. Swindoll

Think about your attitude? How do you react to things?
