Baby it's cold outside!!

The first snow of the winter.... sort of! It gave just enough to dust the top of the roofs and the top of our drive way and as it turned out no school??? The roads were perfectly dry - I even took the kids to Chik-Fil-A but boy were they excited to wake up and have a drive way covered in snow - we even had a sled ready for the big day! So they played - at 8:30 AM on the drive way! I looked outside and found Lilly Ann in boots, a nightgown and that's it and Harrison was in Jammies!! It did not last but a second and she was back inside ready to eat breakfast and he was dressed and ready for the days fun (and she never went back out to play) and HD came in and out most of the day.... fun fun fun!!! LOL! Oh my stars were they cold!! We drove by "the hill" across Wolf River to check and make sure but just as we guessed it was totally without snow...oh well! Maybe in February or March??

A VERY HAPPY NEW YEAR SURPRISE!

Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come!” (2 Corinthians 5:17)

So I was thinking of the new year and New Year Resolutions..... I resolve to.... be a sweet Mommy - more patient and silly.... Be a good wife - more thoughtful and supportive.... Be a good member of our church - more involved and helpful.... and quite simply.... be simple! :)

I'm so excited about our brand new year - new heart, new perspective and new addition.... don't get too excited I'm not preggers but KAITLYN IS HOME FOR GOOD!! :) Well at least until she goes to college in a 1 year and 1/2! She'll be back from NC within the week! We are OH SO EXCITED!! We are getting ready to update her room and bathroom...it will be so much fun picking out fun new colors and spreads and I am so excited to make new curtains and pillows for our very special new year surprise!! I can't think of a sweeter New Years Gift ever!!

God is SO Good and His timing is perfect!!
