natures little beauties

and the prettiest sunset I've ever seen in my life...

Isn't it gorgeous? Sunsets will always remind me of my mom.  She absolutely loves them.  We used to sit on the front porch during the summer and just watch the sun go down.  I never really understood her passion for things in nature.  She'd just laugh tell me that I would one day. It seems that she may have been right. 

Watching those sunsets with her is definately on my top ten list of things I will miss most this summer while we're in North Carolina.  The earth is a beautiful place, that's for sure.
