These flowers were from my sweetheart! I love you so very much... thanks for loving me unconditional!

the 2010 snow storm

 
 
 
 

It started snowing around lunch time on Friday, it snowed, and snowed, and by that evening, we had about 8 inches. The kids went outside and played along with Vel and I. The next morning when it stopped snowing we had about 12 iches of snow!!!! It wasn't very cold just great fun for the kids to go out and play. Our Sunday morning service was cancelled which pleased us all very much! :)Had a very fun relaxing time at home. Now this morning it was foggy and cold around 0. Around noon the sun came out and it is slowing warming up! Creating wonderful memories!

Work on the Farm

Dave and I drove down to the farm on Saturday and these our pictures from all the work they had done. It is getting rather exciting to see everything come together. 
 
 
 

Without faith, it is impossible to please God. "Not much in my life requires faith. I intentionally construct my life that way: do things I know I can do, with means I have, in territory familar to me. But isn't God saying that to please Him we need to live in this wild leap of faith - That's terrifying space!!

More snow

The snow has cancelled all the work on the pond. I am disappointed but we really don't need the pond till next spring.... but still I find myself wanting to see results right away. Maybe that is something I need to work on, cause I am discovering that is how I am with my diet... I want to lose 10 pounds overnight and am disappointed when it doesn't happen.

The children have been enjoying the snow so very much. Everyday after schooling they are out playing, sledding & shoveling snow. They even got Dad and I to go out one evening. It really was fun and made me feel young again. But the next day was a different story.

Our church contiune to have more shock waves. Last Sunday, January 3rd Steve & Barb asked to be release from their duties as pastor. Then on Thrusday, Ed Mullet who has been taking over the duties of bishop, pastor & everthing else, said in a statement that he has been diagnosed with a rare form of cancer. So we keep going praying and fasting that we as a church could together find the answers to the problems in our church. Not easy with the ages of our kids and having to see them struggle thru all these questions.

 
 
 
 

January has arrived cold & snowy! Ilove when the children get to go out and play in the snow and come in for their usual cup of hot chocolate!

Another day at the farm and more work on the pond and drive.

The little white shed in the background is the spring house.
