Double Rainbows (Quotable Bits #29)

"We may run, walk, stumble, drive, or fly, but let us never lose sight of the reason for the journey, or miss a chance to see a rainbow on the way."
- Gloria Gaither

This weekend was another adventurous weekend away with the family, and while it was busy - packed with lots of family fun with cousins, aunts, uncles and gramma - we took the time to quietly enjoy a beautiful double rainbow. And this moment was a big reminder for me - to never lose sight of the reason for the journey. We must always remember to take time to smell the roses. And this weekend, smell the roses I did.


I hope you've all had the chance to enjoy a rainbow as well this weekend! Come share your quotes and link up your quotable bits! Linky will be live all week. Don't forget to tell your friends to join in on the fun!

Yes, I've posted this pic twice, because it was THAT pretty - not pretty enough to cry like the crazy rainbow guy though ;)

  1. Gorgeous shots! Sounds like an awesome weekend. I really need to remind myself to stop and admire the rainbows these days. There has just been too much go-go-go in my life lately.

  5. That rainbow picture is absolutely stunning. As are most of your Instagrams... I always love seeing the pictures of the kids with the woods in the background. It really makes me miss the woods... we don't exactly have those here in South Florida!
