Thursday Beauty
The day was bright and sunny
How did you spend your day!?
Love, JanBeek ❤️
Gorgeous CA Coast
It was an extra 6 hour drive – stressful in torrential rains, but well worth it to be able to spend time at Carmel by the Sea and experience the Asilomar coast. Sooo beautiful!
Don’t know what that white is…
Don’t know what that black spot is!
God is good! Now, a safe drive to Sacramento airport early tomorrow- and I’ll see you back in Montana.
Love, JanBeek
Wonderful Family Time
The end of 2025
Found us loving life
Spending it with family
Avoiding stress and strife
All should be so blessed
To have such happy love
We don’t take it for granted
Such love is from above!
Love, JanBeek
I Can Stay in Touch
I can stay in touch
Though miles separate us
Thanks to internet
I can stay in touch
Thanks to the power of prayer
I feel close to you
I can stay in touch
Using WhatsApp on my phone
It is a great tool
When I stay in touch
With the help of my iPhone
Distance disappears
I can stay in touch
Across wide, long, deep spaces
Nothing can stop me
You can stay in touch
Through the power of WordPress
Come on, write to me!
I’ll write back to you
You are not too far away
We can stay in touch!
Cheers, my friends!
Hugs,
JanBeek
I CAN Say Goodbye
I can say goodbye
I can hug and squeeze them tight
Send them on their way
Goodbye to September…
… and Hello to Autumn!
October is here.
and to enjoying the fall colors while we go
and sunsets and pumpkins
Yes, I can say
Hello to cooler days
and colder evenings
(but we’re not ready for the snow yet!)
Seasons come and seasons go.
Company comes and company goes.
But family (ah yes, family) stays in our hearts forever
regardless of how many times we have to say goodbye!
To what are you ready to say goodbye?
And hello to what?
Tell me!!
Love,
JanBeek
I Can Enjoy Family Times
I CAN enjoy Fun Times with family …
and I DID!!
It’s been quite a week
Here I am with our “bonus daughter,” Laina, who lives in Maryland,
our grandson, Nick, and his mom, our daughter, DeDe,
both of whom flew here from Switzerland.
at Wasabi’s in Bozeman, Montana this weekend.
Yes, DeDe and I were there, too.
It’s a fun place!
Can you believe he ran (or walked when necessary)
for a total of 17 miles? Amazing!
but what fun he had eating the chocolate
from the 1st place medallion
that Elaina bought for him!!
Gotta keep movin’ to stay fit!
Fun times indeed!!
What do you do to stay fit?
“the kids” found other happy things to do –
like a day in Virginia City
and a trip to Yellowstone.
Here is Nick at our favorite brunch spot
in Bozeman:
Jam!
If you’re ever in our area,
you gotta be sure
to make this one of your stops!
was enhanced by “the pup!”
Kenny has loved all the company … extra playmates!
They leave to return to their homes tomorrow.
We are certainly going to miss them!
Who have you hosted in your home this summer/fall?
I hope you had as much fun with family as we did!
Off to bed now.
See ya tomorrow –
We’re going to the airport bright and early.
Good night!
Love,
JanBeek
Can’t Live Without
What’s the one luxury you can’t live without?
Air: an essential… treat each breath as a luxury. Never waste a minute of the breath you receive. It’s the gift of life. Every day is a luxury. Cherish it!
Here are some ways I live and share the luxuries inherent in every day:
Can’t live without the contacts with loved ones … so grateful for the luxury of their shared experiences!
God bless those loved ones in our lives who share their experiences with us, huh? Such sharing definitely is a luxury for us as receivers. Thank you for sharing yours, too🥰👌🏽!
Love,
JanBeek
Let Love In
See that cute little boy up there with his loving mom & dad? Well, look at him now!
My niece, Jodie (Liam’s mom) and her hubby, Bill, have a gorgeous 1790’s BarN. They held a graduation party for Liam there. About 200 attended!!
While in PA we also got to visit the National Aviary. What a beautiful, elegant collection of birds!
Meantime back at home, our pup, Kenny, enjoyed playmates and our son, Ty in CA, counted down days til retirement.
Let Love In!!!
I hope your June started out as beautifully as ours!
Let Love In!
Hugs,
JanBeek
Angels All Around
Do you have any collections?
Angels all around
Remind me of my mother
It’s her collection
It means “of angels!”
Nice to know, isn’t it?
I begin each day up in this place with Guideposts’ Mornings with Jesus. Been doing that for 20 years. What a gift this space is!
It’s a perfect place to begin each day. Jesus is there. The Holy Spirit speaks to me. The collection of angels and crosses remind me of Christ’s sacrifice … His gift of grace to us all. What a blessing that space and those angels are! Come visit us. We’d love to share the peace with you.
Love, JanBeek
