I love how I look gigantor in this picture next to Kris. What up with that? Then, in an attempt to get some new profile shots for Twitter and whatnot, I took this self-portrait:
What makes me laugh about this picture is Kris’ observation of how everyone looks/smiles differently in pictures they take of themselves. It’s like me – but not really me. Ya know? Funny. Good times.
We had a WONDERFUL time together on Amelia Island. And I mean all caps WONDERFUL. We finally viewed the much talked about “Fireproof.” I looked over and saw a tear – or two – flowing down Kris’ cheek. It wasn’t the emotional display he put on while watching Marley & Me, but he was noticeably touched by the film. I doubt any of the actors would ever get an Oscar nod, but the story was a powerful one.
Favorite line in the movie – and a thought I’d like to leave you with:
“Don’t follow your heart. Your heart can deceive you. Lead your heart.”
What does this thought mean to you?
First thought when I looked at your pictures! Cute as a button!!! lol
So happy you had fun, Fun is good to have!
Leading your heart is a good quote…when i feel no love for someone, I pray, “Lord, fill me with love for them” Our hearts can go astray..? Love this blog Dusty! Have fun today too! Your a blessing!
LOVE LOVE LOVE IT ALL!!!! GREAT PICTURES AND AGAIN I LOVE YOUR BLOG. AS ALWAYS!!!
You are so cute!
I think that our emotions are often false. Its our flesh speaking and not allowing God’s truth to be our voice of reason. So oftentimes I have to tell myself the Truth over and over and tell my heart and my emotions what I am going to feel and then they follow. Our emotions add to our life experience and sear amazing memories onto our hearts.
Glad your back!! We just watched the movie and are doing the book in our lifegroup..I think I may have seen a tear or two as well (not from me of course:)) While doing the study, I am learning love is a choice and not just an emotion. If we follow our heart ( which is trained by society and life to covet,want,desire, things we don’t have, ) we miss what we do have. This book is opening my eyes to how God has intended us to love each other in spite of our shortcomings . For us, it has been the first steps to a richer marriage>>>
BTW, I disagree with your Oscar quip, I am pretty sure the “Dr.”" will be receiving a supporting actor nod:)
I finally figured out who you look like!! You are the younger version of Christie Brinkley! I will have to find one of her younger pics so we can compare. Great blog! I thought I was the only one who hadn’t seen Fireproof. Guess we’ll have to check it out eventually.
