Mens Boots: A good idea



I love me some boots.








These last 3 are from "schmoove" Definitely worth checking out.
















I leave you with some boots from the 19th century.

CHANGE someone's LIFE

My wish is that someone will sponsor a child or give to one of these amazing organizations! There are SOO many kids that would LOVE to have a sponsor and penpal. It can be the greatest gift to a child and yourself. Happy Thanksgiving!

"compassion" is amazing!!





sponsor "this" child





"smiletrain" helps kids with clefts.
if you can't sponsor a child then make one smile by helping contribute to their surgery.


I'm sure you will pass someone homeless today or tomorrow or whenever!! if you are unable to help them eat, then at least give them a smile :)

I once asked a homeless man what is the one thing he wishes when people see him and he said I wish they would ask my name. I have a heart for the homeless. I don't care if they are on the street cause of drugs or whatever the reason is. I don't need to know the reason... point is they are there and I want to share love with them. Gods grace is good.

Santa Barbara Bday



Santa Barbara birthday in August. 


We started out by eating the BEST clam chowder at "brophybros" on the pier.


we headed to this amazing winery at an old airplane hangar but I can't remember the name. 


playing shuffleboard


then after some wine we extended our travel to the mountains and found this rock and river trail...


so of course we had to get out and walk it as far as it would let us.


we then visited the "Franciscan Friars" monastery.


one of the most beautiful places of worship





the last of our last adventure ended at the beach


and the cliffs overlooking a beautiful sunset. 

"GOD" is good
thanks for the amazing people and things that you create for our enjoyment!
