Late January rolls into February for our family. We have those continuing birthdays and I do not think I shared much on Morgan's birthday.  It fell on a Tuesday but we began celebrating on Saturday morning with breakfast as a family. The afternoon was at the Main Event in Grapevine. AKA Bowling! 

 Kelly (Morgan's Love and wife) planned a wonderful party and it was a huge family event with lots of food, drink and cake of course. I only wish I could have caught Morgan with his bowling style. He flips the ball into the air and it lands with a WHOMP and then rolls down to strike all the pins. Amazing and yes he is amazing too. 

 Celebrating life and birthdays is always a joyful time. All of our grandchildren were there... from age 2 up to age 17... three of them!  All brothers and sisters and both families were there too. (This was before Lady M was born, just a few days before.)  The stimulation in a bowling alley like this is life on steroids. Did not take long for Lady L to be wound up and the Bear, age 2, to be ready to bowl his balls down a big plastic slide. Morgan even balanced balls for the kids creating a contagious laughter that whipped through us all.
Trying to keep life balanced is a daily challenge, altho Morgan does a fab job with these bowling balls on his own.

 I am of firm belief that we unbalance our own lives faster than anyone else does. When those times come, you have to allow your broken spirit to be lifted up by the Spirit. True comfort. We never have to 'go it alone'. Any emotional or physical feelings are supported by God.  His love fills all needs and flows through us into our lives. 

Maybe tomorrow I can share Morgan and Kelly's love story.  It is almost as good as Terry's and mine. 

 Blessings to you. Laurie

 "Let your steadfast love become my comfort according to your promise to your servant." Psalm 119:76

EXHAUSTED Woman Figurative Oil Painting, Art Deco Painting, Art Abstract Painting, Women in Kitchen Oil Painting by Texas Artist Laurie Pace

'Exhausted' 24 x 24  Oil on Canvas Contact me to purchase by check or paypal. 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

   © +Laurie Pace         Graphics One Design 2019 Sleeping Cowboy Commissioned Painting for one of our oldest friends. 2004  ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- FOLLOW MY BLOG  ON INSTAGRAM     @lauriepaceblog Available Paintings by Laurie Pace          “I love sleep. 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...
