Sunset

The other day I saw the most beautiful sunset. We had had some cloud cover most of the day, and it was still there at sunset, so it provided a backdrop for this amazing light that was red with a pink tint. As you looked further out it changed from red to purple. I realize that this isn't very exciting in writing, but I wanted to share it because it marked an especially good day, one where (yet again) I had not accomplished much in the way of unpacking and moving in to our new apartment, but at that moment I was living in the moment, and pushing my daughter on the swing. By the way, our new apartment faces inward to a large courtyard with trees, grass, playground, and swings. We are really enjoying that, and enjoying the family community that it fosters. We have already met several of our neighbors.

Yea for sunsets and new apartments. Maybe I will have to make a visit sometime to see what the hubbub is all about! Unfortunately, I never have a day off again in my entire life. But i promise to stop by!!!

Sounds like you had a fun day! I think you and Rachel should come to Arizona where it is too hot to go outside and enjoy sunsets!!
