A Peaceful Night

I've been under a lot of stress in my life in the past six months or so, so a night like tonight was exactly what I needed.

First, a neighbor of mine let us borrow her Jeep Rubicon for the night and tomorrow. We've built a pretty good friendship with her, and tonight I guess she was feeling charitable! It looks like the below picture except it's black.



Then, as we were getting ready to go get ice cream in her Jeep, a young deer came through our back yard, through our side yard, walked about six feet by us, and then saw us and ran off. Unfortunately, I had no camera so this one will have to do.



Then, after our ice cream adventure in our borrowed Jeep with the top off (a beautiful night to do this by the way), my daughter and I went out looking for fireflies (or lightning bugs, as you will see makes more sense), and we caught one. Noelle named him "McQueen" after Lightning McQueen from the movie cars. (I'm letting him go after she goes to sleep).

A very peaceful night. Thanks, God!
