On the weekend our family took an awesome road trip through the beautiful mountains to go and visit my brother and his wife and new babe, in Seattle.
We got to sleep - in , in Seattle. When we arrived it was a sunny 20 degrees and there were huge pink flowering dogwood trees.
We had lots of fun playing games, talking about our strengths and what God is teaching us.
I hardly had to focus on whether I had any thoughts of judgement because I was too busy enjoying my little nephew, and my kids. We enjoyed venturing down to Pikes Pier Market in downtown Seattle. There were oodles of daffodils and tulips for sale, and I was breathing in the beauty of them all.
Isn't it interesting, that when we set our hearts and minds on viewing all the great things around us, we don't even consider judging? Or maybe, for me, it is because, I have made a choice to focus on other things.
I am grateful for this journey of Reformation that God has had us on. I can't wait to hear all the positive results, and in the future we will see the fruit come forth.

Yup Alyssa just colored her hair dark, for fun. The clowns were from St. Patricks Day.
And you are all right, my nephew is really cute. I have waited a LONG time for him. My brother is 45, so I am glad to have this little man in my life.
Oh my goodness!! Alyssa looks great - No, I would not have recognized her either. And Cheryl - you look BEAUTIFUL!! Just as beautiful as the flowers behind you. Both of you in bloom.
And Rocket - soooooo cute!!! I think he has his Daddy's eyes.
Sounds like a wonderful weekend.
Love,
Rhonda
