Lopez, La Vernia, Texas...Although I am not a photographer by any means, I do take pleasure in snapping photos so I thought I would try a shot at sharing some pics and also share some thoughts about myself and my family at the same time. I happen to know two very sweet and dear people who have a true passion for photography and have taken some fabulous photos and their links are posted here. I truly admire their talent and appreciate their encouragement for me to try something new. I admire them immensely and would love to possess even the teeniest bit of their talent! Thanks you two! So about me... a girl who grew up out in the country in the outskirts of San Antonio, Tx in a small town called Elmendorf, Tx. I grew up in a humble family of 6 who lived on 33 acres. Let me tell you it was the best! My parents grew their own fresh fruits and vegetables. We used to have an orchard of plum trees. It was the best being able to go and pick a plum to eat right off the tree...yum! I'll always be proud of where and how I was raised and will never lose my love for living out in the country! My dream is to live out in the country again someday!

These are great skies! Love the moodyness of them :)
Nothing like some rain to start the day. It rained this morning and it was so nice to when you can snuggle under the covers... not for long though since its Monday and had to get up eventually to head for work.
Hi Tanya and Divemuster!! Thank you sooo much for the comments! I agree, the skies were just beautiful that morning! We deperately needed this rain. How I wish I could have stayed snuggled under the covers!
I just returned from a trip with some friends to Las Vegas, Nevada and on the way home on the plane Sunday night I witnessed an amazing lightening show in the sky. How I wish I could've taken some shots of it! I'm sooo glad we weren't flying through it though. It really was beautiful to watch and that's because I am extremely afraid of flying. Thanks again! Bye! :)
Hi Sandra! Glad you returned back safe. The lightning must been awesome.. yes frightening but somehow ignites a fascination with the display of raw power. I've managed to get a shot of lightning before..
