When time allows, I enjoy journaling our journey and putting the pictures in books…maybe someday when I’m too old to do much else and possibly reposing in a nursing home (if those still exist) Andrew and I will be able to look at the books and remember these days.

I was wondering how I would get along with a gas range, I am impressed! I love the double ovens and the griddle burner.

Andrew snapped this picture and really liked it. This particular set of windows provides sunlight for our staircase.

Bonding time.

Some days it’s just real tough to want to go out and take care of the chores. When the wind chill is -60 degrees it seems just easier to roll over and throw on another set of covers. However, a person realizes that to be a good steward one must take care of their livestock. Without a doubt, I am sure looking forward to warm spring days!

I will admit, on the days when I do go out to help (my dad and Andrew do the bulk of it since I have the excuse of having a baby and little ones to take care of), I know I come back in to the warm house with a better attitude, and I am more patient and kind to those around me. The frigid cold makes me realize I should not take for granted the blessings that I’ve been given…ie. good health, a warm house, wonderful friends and family!

One of the Sweetest and most Generous of friends sent us Valentines today!

I appreciate the school supplies storage room.

I can handle getting these kind of reports from school. Must be the shadow of St. Clement’s Church influence.

We took a walk in the 40 degree weather God has blessed us with… the amount of cuteness on this walk was beyond measure!
