It is a bit windy here in North Dakota.
There aren't many trees.
Blankets were still required at more than one baseball game in June.
And I have yet to survive my first winter.
But the rugged, natural beauty here is unlike any I have seen before.
Pictures don't do it justice.
But here are a few of my best shots so far.

| Badlands in Medora |

| Badlands about 30 minutes from Dickinson |

| Painted Canyon |

| What you can't see here is that a storm is brewing. | 
|  | 
| Blurry because it was dark, but look at the lightning. | 
|  | 
| A shot of the sunset on our anniversary. |

| Another | 
|  | 
| And one more. |

| Cross atop a butte at the camp the kids attended. It's about a 45 minute hike to the foot of the cross.

I find myself thanking God on a daily basis for the gift of beauty He has given us.  
The works of His hands are incomparable.

Absolutely beautiful! It makes me want to take a vacation to your parts. I never thought I would say that about North Dakota ; )
I had similar feelings when we moved to Wisconsin and bought long johns for a September soccer game. Just think of all the beautiful adventures your guys will have! Buy a few more layers! You will get used to it soon.
Amazing Job Amy:) God's creation is so incredible- especially when we take the time to enjoy and appreciate it. Your photos are incredible too!
