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 sure she would LOVE a comment or two!!




Caleb posed for me in front of a HUGE snow pile.....

William and Emma, the two who conquered Mount Everest!




"We're not in Tx anymore Toto!"



Just comment below, and I'll try to send you some...but it might have melted away before it gets to you.....=)
Stay tuned for a post about ice skating/sledding/onehugefellowship coming this weekend!

Y'all come back now, ya hear?!?! {insert smile}

    I'm SO glad you started this up, I have been feeling sorely bereft and deprived about family happenings ever since Tiffany folded down "Reflections." ;-) Glad you're all safe from the storm, and rejoicing in the weather that God has brought.

    "I'mmmm...dreaming of a super-white....February."

    Wow. So I guess you're like...snowed in?

    If you need anything, let us know

    Len ~ Thanks!!And I'll stay warm....just layering clothes on over here! =}

    Hohn ~ We are incredibly grateful too!! Thankfully it poured most of the snow down while we were all sleeping! It does look beautiful now...makes our lawn look just as nice as the neighbors!

    Jess ~ Thanks!! Let's hope you're brave enough today!! =) Are you sure about the book....I saw you reading last night when I went to bed...;)

    Jacob ~ It definitely is a SUPER-white February!! I'm hoping it doesn't last too long....I don't like driving in it and being snowed in isn't all that people say it is. I'm getting cabin fever! =\

    Sure, IF we need anything I'll let y'all know! I'm sure the Evans won't mind a drive out here...{cheesy grin}

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?!?!?

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...
