Furry Foto Friday: Squirrels & Deer & Ducks, Oh My!

What’s better than seeing game animals🐿 in taxidermy on a wall?

👓Seeing them live, of course!

In spirit of 🎍Texas Independence🎋 this week plus with 💐spring🍀 and 🐇Easter🍳 around the corner to celebrate new 🕊life, I’m sharing a few of my favorite sightings as a tribute to ☝🏽️GOD’s creation of our 🌠Great Lone Star State’s creatures!

 

• 🌰Squirrels🐿 in the 🌳backyard🌲
• 🎅🏽Deer🎄 prancing at 🐂Perini Ranch🐎
• 🐣Ducks🐥 quacking at 🇺🇸Pendleton Park🌴

Speaking of animals…

Happy Early 10th 🎈Birthday🎁 to my 🦁ASIA🐅 on Holy Thursday!

& speaking of birthdays…

Happy 106th Birthday to my 👵🏽Lola Rosa🌹 mañana!

Thirsty Thursday: Pray Always Everyday

🌞Everyday, I greet👋 GOD☝️ as soon as I 😵awake😲 and right before I go to 😴sleep💤 plus any moment in between. As I welcome His presence by opening my window 🌅shades🌇 to bring in the 🌈sunlight☀️, I simply pray🙏

This is the day the LORD has made
Let us rejoice and be glad in it.

I love to wake up to Sweet Annie from slumber and cat naps! 😻

Then throughout the day, I’ll pray before 💻working🎤, 🍕eating🍧 and 🚘traveling✈️. Prior to 🍱meals🍮, I have series of prayer💒 cards, yet I have a couple that are short and sweet…

I packed this picnic real quick for after my Holy Hour. 💝

• From my 👦nephew⚾️:

GOD is good, GOD is great.
Let us thank Him for this food. AMEN.

Add to the mix more fruit and goodies from my CHRIST Bro Joe! 🍎🍊🍌

• Also, another traditional one:

Bless us O LORD, for these thy gifts, which we are about to receive, from thy bounty, through CHRIST our LORD. AMEN.

• Following the 🍜feast🍰, I also pray:

We give thee thanks to the Almighty GOD, who lives and reigns forever, and to the souls of the faithful departed, Rest In Peace. AMEN.

Our Groundhog pal also approached us for apples! 🐒

Once I’m about to hit the 🌆sack🌄, my bedtime prayers include the 🌹Rosary💍 and these from my childhood:

Now I lay me down to sleep, I pray the LORD, my soul to keep…

• Guide me, JESUS, through the night, and wake me with the morning light. AMEN. 
• If I should die before I wake, I pray the LORD, my soul to take. AMEN.

Thank you for another blessed day, LORD!
