" 'I will now rise up,' says the Lord; 'I will place them in the safety for which they long.'"
Psalm 12:5

This is Terry and I probably in 1966. We were swimming at a friends house and he had just handed me a yellow lollipop to eat.

Today is our wedding anniversary. Not sure where the years have gone, but I cherish each and every memory of our journey. I meet him officially in 7th grade, but he did go to the same elementary school, we just didn't cross paths there. He came to the district in 4th grade and I had been here from the beginning. Have I ever told you he has every note I ever wrote him? When I read through them years ago, I decided I was definitely an insecure teenager and easily moved to be jealous. It was most embarrassing. Sometime in the near future I need to LOSE that box as I clean things out. He is forever a pack rat.

Not sure what our plans are for the day at all. He has not been feeling up to par. He asked if I wanted to fly to Seattle for Lobster and I giggled saying I didn't eat lobster. How about flying to St Louis for a soft pretzel or to Florida, Miami Beach where we honey mooned for some good Key West Shrimp?

Only this day will unfold in the Lord's hands....and I give thanks for the years, the joy, the tears and for this day.....

"Where you go I will go, and where you stay I will stay. Your people will be my people and your God my God. Where you die I will die, and there I will be buried. May the LORD deal with me, be it ever so severely, if anything but death separates you and me." Ruth 1:16-17

Mixed Media Collage Horse Paintings by Texas Artist Laurie Justus Pace

  © G.O.D. Laurie Justus Pace      Graphics One Design 2013 Horse Collage Fall 2013  12 x 18 inches Mixed Media on Canvas.  This was an intentional paint to imitate one of the 100 ponies I did in 2012. That poor little 8 x 10 pony was loved by a company to do very large prints and it was not here for me to even use to scan... so I created something with the same heart, a kindred spirit. The underlays are pages from a western book and then torn papers of different varieties were added along with stains of paint and purposeful areas of paint.  This would not be a painting I would do today, but the goal was to capture the spirit of the first painting.

Laurie     © Laurie Justus Pace     Graphics One Design 2010 My Website   Thinking ahead to the Thanksgiving celebration next week, I remembered back to those previous dinners that I cooked, served, ate quickly, and cleaned up.  This is how I felt.  It is probably strange...even for me but I had the best fun sketching it out and painting it. We lost another dear family member this week. She has celebrated her 'continuation' day and is now with her mom and dad and her other cousins.  She leaves behind a family that will always celebrate her gentleness.  My aunt was special to all of us. She loved each of us dearly for who we were and was always ready with a hug or a 'good job'.    My memories are of breakfast pastries smeared with butter on top. It was not like they were not sweet enough as they were, but at her small kitch...

Sleeping Cowboy . Ernest Hemingway . Sunday, a day of rest . Western Painting by Texas Artist Laurie Pace

My life has the tendency to fall apart when I'm awake, you know?” Ernest Hemingway  I really enjoyed painting this scene. It was restful to me as the artist  and loved by our friends.  Sunday is the day of rest. I smiled when I found this in archives and thought it perfect for this day.  If you live in Texas you know that we still have 'rules' about not selling liquor before noon.  If you live in Texas and are in your late thirties and up, you might even remember Blue Laws.   Stores were simply NOT open...
