Waiting for Spring...

Could winter get any longer??? Seriously! Six more inches yesterday. Although, I must say I am particularly pleased that the Lord keeps melting most of the old snow before replacing it with the new inches. At least we aren't completely buried.

These winter doldrums definitely bog down the old mindset. Everything seems blah in the bleakness of winter and I find us drudging through the weekly routine always reaching for Fridays and the weekend. We've had some little bouts of sickness, but on the whole, we continue in good health.

I need some ideas to spice and jazz our daily routine up. We are fairly active on the weekend, but our weekdays are same old, same old. Kids thrive on routine but I need the change and variety. Otherwise, my mind turns to mush.

I think I actually just need spring! We had such a wonderful summer last year, I don't think I ever really adjusted to the fact that it was over...

Christmas Pics

Could they be any cuter? Seems like this Christmas EVERYBODY got them matching outfits. I'm sure they won't love it when they're older, so we're milking it now! Annie is turning out to be an even bigger ham than Grace! She cheeses it up for everyone, but the camera definitely needs to be QUICK!
