Snow!!!

This weekend we were happily snowed in. Even though there was some sleet mixed in with the snow our power stayed on. Electricity makes a big difference in my enjoyment of the snow. Our driveway was covered with a sheet of ice, and Laura and I went sledding down it.

Favorite Puzzle

Mom, Laura, and I enjoy working puzzles. We finished this one about a week ago, and it is definitely one of our favorites. It is a puzzle of all the states' birds and flowers. We had to work it on the table because it was too big for our puzzle board.

A Frankenberger Visit

Jaclyn and Daniel surprised us last week by stopping by for a short visit. Caleb and Jack were visiting Daniel's parents, so they weren't with them. We did get to see Sam though. He is so cute. He enjoyed playing with the toys my grandma keeps at her house, and when it was time to go he didn't want to leave. That made my grandma feel very special.

Almost Christmas!!!!

This ornament hung on my mom's tree when she was a little girl, and we still hang it on our tree. I love how the light shines through it.

Our Hike

The hike to the top of Crowders Mountain was very foggy, but once we reached the top the fog cleared. My dad says that this view looks like it should be in a movie.

Mysterious Berries

I saw these berries the other day while I was taking a walk. They were growing on a bush by the lake at the park. I have never seen any like them before, and I'm not sure what they are. Whatever they are, they are very pretty.

A Great Find

When I saw this cake keeper at Value Village I fell in love with it. I think it is so pretty. I've never seen a cake keeper that looks like this before.
