We had another fairly quiet weekend. It was cold, but no rain and beautiful blue skies. We went to lunch on Saturday with his mom. After we dropped her off back home, we stopped at Aldi's and I picked up a few things. Came home and I did laundry and took a short nap and then took a walk with Lucy. Saw a hawk perched on a utility cable wire. It was beautiful, but I didn't get a very good picture that day.

On Sunday we had church and hubby preached another in his Unexpected Graces Series from the book of Ruth. I'll have it posted below. Sunday afternoon, Lucy and I took another good walk and saw another (or maybe the same) hawk. I got a little better pictures then.

Below is hubby's pre-recorded Sunday morning sermon.
Thanks for visiting and I hope you have a great day.

Gorgeous bird, but I still have misgivings about them any time our girls are outside. Have a blessed day!
ReplyDeleteMe too. Lucy is never out unless on a leash as we don't have a fenced yard. And when I see a hawk I pull her in closer to me hoping they won't swoop down because their afraid of me.
DeleteMost hawks are pretty, we're having one sit on a street light post across the street. He sure makes a pretty sight up there against a pretty blue sky. The thing is, I'm afraid to let my little brown chi out because I'm afraid the hawk will swoop down and get him. He looks like an oversized rat anyway. lol His name is Buddy Boy but sometimes I call him my little rat dog. :)
ReplyDeleteThat's so funny Mary. I definitely pull my dog in closer when we get near him.
DeleteBeautiful bird! Those blue skies look so inviting!
ReplyDeleteThank you.
DeleteThat is a beautiful hawk!! They really are majestic looking and you got some great photos! We have a new Aldi's going in a couple of miles from my home and I'm looking forward to it. Our first Aldi is about 10 miles north so I've only been a couple of times. Have a good week!
ReplyDeleteThanks Terri. You too.
DeleteBeautiful, powerful bird. Wonder if he/she has a nest nearby? Looks pretty content just balanced on the wire.
ReplyDeleteI had lunch with a dear friend today and she was feeling very low after a relationship she had just begun fell apart. Your husband's statement that even in the most confusing moments, God is at work in us, through us and around us struck home. I need to remind Lorena that we may not understand why things happen but there is a reason. And often times that reason becomes clear down the road.
