Crisp Morning



It snowed last night. It rained until 4 am then "poof!" the rain transformed into snow, like magic. It was crunchy this morning on our way to seminary, crunchy and beautiful.




I am in aw many times when I look out my window, or when I am walking down the drive, that this is my yard. Those are my trees, our pond, 11 acres of beauty. I am in love with our property, down to the bees nest (not my fav) to the moss covered stump (one of my favorites).

Shylee drives to seminary. She did pretty well this morning. The roads were kinda slick and had some snow on them, so for a novice in the snow, she did well, I am proud of her. I loved the sounds she would make when she would come up to something that looked harrowing, like a corner that looked icy. Her "ooh" and "ack" sounds were fun to listen to. I was giggling....inside (I'm not stupid I giggled inside).
I had to take a picture of the windshield of the truck, even though I didn't have to scrape it,because we took the car...I did have to brush off the snow on the car. That's okay. It was pretty!

Lori, these pix are awesome! I love the one of the stump. That's really, really beautiful. It's great that when you look back on your time in Ohio, you will love to remember your land. It really is awesome. I hope you have such a love at the next place as well...because you are a land-lover and you really belong in a beautiful and rugged expanse. It suits you! I miss you, girly. Hope things are good. love you, Jes
