Weekly Challenge: Christmas

It’s been quite sometime since ExP and I had a photo challenge. But seeing as the holidays are close by, I suggested we do another one with the theme of Christmas. For this challenge, I visited my local Ajax Chapters book store and snapped some photos of their seasonal decorations and gifts. The day was made extra special when my friend, Alison, joined me for a hot holiday drink at Starbucks and a present exchange – made amongst the store’s beautiful holiday decor, festive tunes and vast array of Christmas books and candies.

A Day in Durham by Emily Santos

First dance

“Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.”  Corinthians 13:4-7

Congratulations Aimee & Jason!

Hey Jude

It’s too often we forget our blessings. Today I thank God for you, J. I’m so lucky to have you in my life; you’re like the sister I’ve never had. ILU.

“Remember to let her into your heart. Then you can start to make it better.”

Life is a gun

It’s a new year. That means a new beginning for many of us. This year, I will welcome new memories, say goodbye to the past, and always remember those I’ve loved, lost and perhaps left behind.
