"The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork" ~ Psalm 19:1
Yes, yes....I know. I said the next post would have ice skating, sledding, and much more fun things in it. Today I forced myself to go out into the frigid weather and take a MUCH needed walk. If I don't walk often, I get claustrophobic REALLY easily. Thus making the outdoors + sunshine equaling one wonderful walking day!! {insert smile} I like to take a sister or two along with me for company, which means I finally got Abby to come outside! (she likes to come, most of the time) So, I HAD to get pictures of her in this wintery wonderland! Also, dad came out too (mostly to shovel the deck) but he also played around with the kids....so photos was a MUST!!
And so was this post! {insert grin}
Below is Abby in a cave that Caleb built!

Since today happens to be British Humour day I decided to "celebrate" it with a nice warm cup of "English" tea! =)
As I randomly looked out the window, I saw two figures laying out in the snow. I finally found out that dad and Emma decided to take a little "nap" from playing!
These next few happen to be some of my favorites...I ADORE the sky! I haven't seen it in awhile, so now that the sun is out and the skies are blue, I'm trying to enjoy it as much as I can!!And so, I'll end with this picture of Caleb and I! <3
Y'all come back now, ya hear?!?!?
(and this time I won't tell you what's coming up next! So, stay tuned!!)

Added this one, just cause I like it best! =) What I've been working on, because these are much needed very soon! The Spare- oom is for my sister and brother-in-law. They are putting it above their baby's room which is also the guest room/stash room/sewing room! Couldn't decide which one I liked better....=P 1.... and 2! This is for my brother and soon-to-be Sister-in-law! I've made three of these and have gotten a good report...so this is what I give when people are getting married! =) Now to go conquer my Saturday, which it is now snowing after a HUGE rain/thunder storm last night. Anyone else have as random weather as we have?!?!? Y'all come back now, ya hear?!?!?

So, as promised, here is PART 2 of our crazy weather! Snow cone? THE SUN IS SHINNING!!!! The three who were brave enough to venture into the great unknown! William and his "guys". Pulling Em out of a drift! Our lane.... The neighbor was kind enough to move the snow to the sides of the rode....thus making HUGE walls on either side! In the country there a LOTS of new games to play. THIS one is called FIND THE DRIVEWAY! Em in a drift.... One happy and rather cold girl! He's not sad.... he's a happy boy! Emma, cooking in style..... Abby stayed inside..she thought it was a better view from the window. Is there anything better then a nice cup of Chai tea while looking out at a frozen wasteland? Some vanilla (I know, very random picture) to make.... White and milk chocolate cookies for the kind neighbor who shoveled our drive!! Abby reading by a nice warm fire.....still not ready to go outside! Abby wrote a blog-post yesterday...I thought it was really cute and I'm su...

Well, here I am after a FULL day of snow, sun, family, friends, fun, and sweet fellowship! Wow! What can I say....it was cold, fun, crazy and did I mention it was cold? Our day started with sauteing the onions and garlic. Adding the beef and other such stuff to make a great southern Chili! Of course we had to make one not so spicy for those who cannot tolerate the taste of a Chipotle pepper! So, below we have Jessica (who did go out and play in the snow) stirring the stuff in a BIG pot! When I woke up the sun wasn't out....I was pretty bummed but was okay about it since we were going to have fun. The sun came out right before the Evans family arrived!! *bliss* God must have sent a blessing my way! Today is Jedidiah Evans Birthday, so we all got to sing for him!! Here is the delicious cake that Grace made for him!! Abby and Cara having fun by their secret snowball stash! =) I told Josiah he looked like he came out of a magazine....whatchya think?!?! Some of the girls stop for a pi...
