“Remember not the former things, nor consider the things of old. Behold, I am doing a new thing; now it springs forth, do you not perceive it? I will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert.”
Isaiah 43:18-19

“Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths.”
Proverbs 3:5-6
Our Christmas candy canes!
Heavy rain brings a lot of water and a lot of visitors to Noccalula Falls!
Experimenting with edits and a longer exposure gives the fast moving water a unique look.
How about some trout fishing below the falls!
The very best gifts!
As close as we come to rocking around the Christmas tree!
Dead leaves and bare trees glow just before sunset and contrast against our very green turnip patch!
The princesses are probably wondering; will these photo sessions ever end?
Sunset on Christmas Eve on Lake Gadsden was stunning. One of the prettiest we’ve seen!

Sunset on lake Gadsden is so pretty. The timing too. Everyone should have as many pictures as possible of their loved ones and you have found that we love to see your family gathered together and especially in candy cane pj’s. I love turnips and turnip greens. Could do some damage to your patch. May God bless you this Sunday and protect you.
Thank you dear Alice, Happy New Year!
Oh, Pam, glorious photos. The sunset is beautiful beyond words – what a Christmas gift. Now to those darling “candy canes.” I do believe they grow more adorable by the minute. And the wheels are turning in the head of Emma. Perhaps she will be a scientist one day. I love the photo of your son, daughter-in-law and the little ones. It is just wonderful.
Pam, wishing you and your family the best of health and happiness in the New Year ! ❤
Thank you Sandra for the gift of your encouraging words. Many blessings and Happy New Year!
Pam, that sunset was breathtaking! I remember you sharing that glorious creation on Christmas Eve on Instagram…simply stunning and what a wonderful gift from our Creator! You have such a beautiful family, and I agree with Sandra those girls get more adorable by the minute! I know that you had so much fun with them on Christmas. I hope you have many blessings, health, and happiness in the new year. Happy Sunday, sweet friend! May your day be filled with lots of joy!
Happy New Year! Thank you for your sweet blogging friendship. Many blessings for 2020!
Oh Pam what delightful array of family Christmas captures. I bet having the two littles makes it so much fun!
That Christmas Eve Sunset was truly something to behold! Stunning! God loves to use his paintbrushes!
Sending you all Happy New Year Wishes!
Thank you Nancy. The two littles make my heart sing. Happy New Year!
Pam, these photos are gorgeous. Of course I love the photo of the majesty of the sunset, but the photos of all of you are my favorites. The one of Seth, Allison and the girls, and the one of Butch, you, and the girls is equally precious. What wonderful memories we should cherish, and I know that you do. Lots of love to all of you.
Thank you my sweet friend! Happy and healthy New Year! ❤️🎉❤️
Love, love all the family photos! The Christmas Eve sunset and the waterfall are stunning. It looked cold up in that deer stand! Feeling a little bleary eyed after staying up late to watch the Clemson game, what a nail biter! Dabo’s first words – “all the glory goes to God”. Have a wonderful week, Pam and Butch, the New Year is fast approaching.
Thank you Roxanne. Congrats to Clemson and on to the national championship! Happy New Year!
The sunset and the waterfalls are so beautiful. I agree that your beautiful family is the best gifts of all. Thank you for sharing your family and your faith.
Thank you dear Dianne. Happy New Year to you and Bob!
Pam, I must say that each photo was enjoyed! The sunrise pic is so pretty as the golden glow is awakening the area. The church, nature shots & falls are fabulous. The family photos are fantastic! The pretty princesses in candy cane PJ’s & then in their beautiful dresses. It’s cuteness overload! Family photos are the best! Thanks so much for sharing them with us ❣️ Happy New Year to you and your family. May God continue to richly bless you! Clara ❤️
Thank you for the gift of your friendship. Happy New Year! 🎉❤️🎉
We witnessed that sunset Christmas eve on the way to family dinner and it simply took one’s breath away in gratitude for the Lord’s artistry. That photo of you both with the girls captures
pure joy on your faces. Such abundance under the tree must have delighted the little ones with
the expectation of finding their surprises. What a treat to have Noccalula Falls so close…great
photography. Your scriptures for the day, as ever, opens our hearts to His message of trust
and giftedness in Him. May His peace and Divine care fill our days in the coming year. Thank
you for this blessed Sabbath pause.
Thank you dear Mary! Wishing you a most blessed New Year!

Oh my! What glorious pictures! Was the sunrise (first picture) taken from a tree stand? Thank you so much for sharing the photos AND the inspirational Bible verses. Your family is just precious.
Thank you Kitty and yes the sunrise was taken from a tree stand. Wishing you a Happy New Year!
Dear friends, today’s post is of great interest. Everything is beautiful, starting with the beautiful girls, the family photo of his son, the family gathered around the tree and his toys … and his with the beauties of two girls. Everything beautiful …
I love the variations of the photo of the waterfall, they are very beautiful.
I am in Granada and Christmas has been a bit “noisy” with so many children because my daughter Almudena was also here. On day 3 I go to my house … I need silence … hahahahaha
All my love and my wishes for a year 2020 are much better than this.
Beautiful! I love those waterfall photos. We’ve had lots of rain too (in fact I’m pretty sure it’s raining out right now).
Look at those sweet Christmas Candy Cane girls! They are darling and your family so handsome. It looks like a beautiful, relaxed Christmas Day! Onward to the new year, my friend. (Yes, rain. My basement took the brunt of it again!)
Thanks for sharing your wonderful Christmas, Pam! It’s so fun to see you in your natural habitat! 🙂 Hope you and your lovely family have a wonderful New Year too! ❤
Pam, ty for sharing these pics of your beautiful GRANDdaughters & Mommy & Daddy.💗💗😊
My pleasure, thank you Ann. Happy New Year🎉❤️🎉
Oh, how wonderful to be able to stop by finally and get to read your latest posts! This is such a busy time. Tonight, I feel a sense of stillness as we pray and reflect and seek God’s face. It is hard to believe 2019 will soon be history, and we look forward to 2020 – the year of perfect vision! God bless you, Butch and Pam!
God bless you and your family my friend!
