"It was a dark and stormy night...."

Well, kind of! Our power went out, so we waited for it to come back on for awhile....never did so the generator got started! Now it's back on and raining.....but while it was off, I decided that pictures with an oil lamp and a little girl who had a turban on her head would be a grand idea! =) And this is what I got out of it!

I love how fat her nose looks in this one!


You should be scared...really, really scared!

Today my mom wrote an article for her blog about saying "I'm sorry" and whether or not it's meaningful or just something to make resolution without being sincere. Anyhow, here are some shots I got for it!
So, that's pretty much it for the day not including Caleb's and my work on tapping our trees! I'm hoping this time it works out! He's rather excited about it though, so it makes it all the better!! =) I'll try to post some pictures soon! Hope y'alls week has started off well and I pray it continues to be even more so!

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

    Matthew, thanks!! It was somewhat fun to not have the power....but it does get inconvenient when there's food to be made and such!

    We tried last year, without the right supplies, so this year we borrowed some from the Castle family. They makes syrup every year for Christmas...makes a very sweet present! =) Caleb seems really excited about it, and hopefully it turns out! =)

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

hike (h k) v. hiked , hik·ing , hikes v. intr. 1. To go on an extended walk for pleasure or exercise. 2. To rise, especially to rise upward out of place. Jasmine decided to come along, even though she had to be lifted up just once! Mr. Hector demonstrating what his kids have done through the ages! Yup, they tried to resemble the tree as best as they could! I think he did a pretty grand job! Dad, looking as dapper as ever with a gorgeous view in the background! Art Dad and Christa as we wait for people to climb up a hole. And there they are! My brother and I! Did I ever mention how much I love him?!?!? Grace, happy as ever! You see, she calls herself "Queen of all Dogs", so having a dog by her side is what places that grin on her face! Or maybe she's just enjoying herself! =) Looking out at the beautiful view and God's awesome creation! Resting......on the edge! Sounds fun? Art They have so many lovely flowers ALL over the place up there! Having a Father/S
