Random Thoughts on ANOTHER Snow Day!


The snow is really piling up today -- this picture was taken around 2:30 p.m. on Tuesday -- looking onto our deck


Delaney loves it when Caiden plays with her -- particularly peek-a-boo! It's so fun to see the big smiles she gives her brother!


Our cabinets have become an art gallery! I saw this idea in Family Fun magazine and decided it was a good way to display some of the kids' artwork. Truthfully, a lot of the kids' stuff ends up in the recycling when they forget about it. This is one way to keep some of the "nicer" ones!


Do you love the Berenstain Bears? We do at our house! Most of these are mine from when I was little, but we've gradually added new ones to the collection for Caiden and Cambry.


On this 5th snow day, I finished replenishing the baby food supply. I love making baby food! This week it was green beans, peas, sweet potatoes, and butternut squash. The picture is of squash ready to be frozen.

Choosing Trust Over Fear

I have struggled with writing about the shooting in Hesston - in fact, I wasn't going to post anything about it.  However, for the sake of memories, I decided I should at least touch on it.  It does deserve a place. It just hit so close to home - particularly since Doug was directly involved.  Honestly, I sometimes feel guilty for struggling with this tragedy.  I wasn't there, I didn't lose anyone close to me, and, although I know a few people who work there, I didn't know any of the victims.  And I get to move on with my life with little disruption.  I feel like I am on the outside looking in.   But I guess that's okay.  I didn't have to be directly involved for this to touch me.  My heart is sad for the families of those who died, for those who were injured, for those who witnessed it, for my brother-in-law who will probably replay images over and over, for my sister and my niece and nephew who might sometimes wonder "what if?", for th...

Merry Christmas!

                                          Yea, Lord, we greet Thee, born this happy morning Jesus, to Thee be glory given Word of the Father Now in flesh appearing O come, let us adore Him O come, let us adore Him O come, let us adore Him Christ the Lord! We enjoyed a very relaxing (and strangely warm) Christmas!  The church Christmas Eve program was back in-person (although the kids had recorded their parts early), and we were back at my parents' house afterwards - much different than last year when we met via Zoom.  The only strange thing this year was the weather - mid-70s on Christmas Eve and just slightly cooler on Christmas Day.  We actually ate our lunch outside on Christmas Eve!  We waited until the 28th to celebrate with Chelan's side of the family - minus the CA crew.  Christmas Eve lunch on the deck! gift cards are hard to get to when they are trap...
