Stop and Smell the Roses

Hey Peeps,
Just wanted to post a quick blog about our day at Falls Park in downtown Greenville, SC near the Reedy River. We had a blast with the Lewis Family, Chris, Tabitha, Marybeth, Gracie and Topher. Chuck and Kala Morris were there too with little Carridee(not sure if that is how you spell her name).

Just hanging out by the Reedy snapping some pictures of the kids while they got some energy out and frolicked in the grass. Watching Gracie, Topher and Meccia walk around and pic flowers made me realize that we sometimes don't take the time to "Stop and Smell the Rose's" so to speak. As I get older I realize that some of the things that used to bother me really don't mean anything in the Realm of Eternity. So remember in your day to day life stop and pick a flower, put down your laptop and focus on what IS important....

GOD
WIFE
KIDS
FAMILY

Even in this bad economy, you can get another job, buy another car and even live in a smaller house than you are accustom to, but you only get one life and in the end there will be God and Family and you don't want to be without them in the last moments. So I pray for myself(especially) and whoever else is reading this to, "STOP AND SMELL THE ROSES." Don't take things for granted and be thankful for what you do have because you can't take any of that other stuff with you in the end.

Oh Yeah click on the links to check out the Picture's of Falls Park Fun Day and Guy's Morning Out. You can also click to the right on the Flickr badge on the top right of my blog page. Thanks to all who reads my blog and views my Flickr Pics.
