Quotes!

Since it has been a long time since we have posted our favored quotes and since we said we would post more. Here's one that I enjoy and hope you will too!

"What we are required to do now is to stand erect
and look the world in the face and do our duty without fear or fervor."
Winston Churchill

Snow

On Monday we got lots of snow. It still hasn't melted off of our yard. So for all of our southern friend eat your heart out on these pictures... and all of our northern friends please don't laugh!
The rail of our back deck.

This is how high the snow was in some places.

Our back yard. Can you see the snowflakes falling?

The snow was lots of fun. The boy even had fun scraping the
ice off of our van!

This is a picture I took on the interstate...so it is kind of
blurry. This is rocks with snow on top of it.

Driving in the Snow!


We usually do not travel in the snow but on Monday it was inexcapable. We where over a friend's house when the snow started falling so we left as soon as possible. Because we were under a Winter snow warning Advisory.

Thankfully we started going home when we did before the snow really started accumulating and accidents began happening. On the interstate snow was dancing around and it looked very beautiful. But it only reminded me of how something beautiful can also be very dangerous. We where so happy when we finally got home. Because just in a mere 15 minutes the snow had really become slick!
