Fr. Bill stop praying!

This is a message to a dear friend of mine...His prayers are REALLY powerful. I asked him to pray for a snow day on Wednesday afternoon and by golly...we had a snow day...on Thursday AND Friday! It hasn't quit snowing since I asked him...now I am asking you to stop praying (only for the snow to let up)! Keep on praying for everything else. But, "prayer" petitioners beware! His prayers do work! I need to get my children back to school and I need to get back to work! Thanks so much Fr. Bill!

I am all Thine!

Just a picture of warmer weather

MORE SNOW!!

Oh my, it will not quit snowing! It is beautiful but I have to tell you I am feeling overwhelmed with all of the snow. Yesterday I was dropping my son off at his friends house and I got stuck in their driveway! I am supposed to take Bridget to a swimming birthday party! Yikes! I can't even imagine going swimming even if it is indoors. BRRR! I am going to post some pictures so we can compare who has the most snow.
Stay posted.

Getting ready for overnights,birthday parties and DC

Since there isn't any school again today, the troops have lined up their activities...Daniel is going overnight to his best friends house from his former school and Bridget is going to a birthday party tomorrow which involves swimming. We are trying to go through her bathingsuits from last year!!! Oh my, she has grown...a lot! Hopefully, we will find one that fits, otherwise it's off to the mall before the party tomorrow (I don't want to tell her they are calling for 5 more inches of snow tomorrow)!

I am grateful that I have a four day weekend. This will allow me to cook and freeze food for my upcoming adventure to DC for the March for Life and to visit one of my kids! I can pack and get things in order before then.

I am all Thine!

No school again...no work again

I guess I had better get creative with the kids tomorrow...I wish it weren't sooo cold! I would have Daniel take the snowmobile out to cruise around on the property. Maybe the weather will clear tomorrow and they can go sledding...especially if the cousins have the day off from school too. I guess it will be another pot of something warm and spicey.

I am all Thine!

January 15, 2009
Today was a snow day for all at home(except poor Dad who had to travel today). I mean a literal "snow" day. I believe the total of snow over night was at least 10 inches! The kids played and lounged around. I did a very unusual thing...I cleaned the house! I made homemade Beef Stew and I exercised! I a m wiped out.
The whole idea of a blog started when I was alone one winter evening. As some of you may know, I have adult children who all live out of town or out of state. I don't get to see them very often as that's how it works as they leave the "nest". I actually thought this would be a good way of letting my family, friends and extended family know what's going on with us.... who's doing what, marrying who, going to school where, working where...I think you get the picture.So this is my first attempt...(well actually my second attempt) to do this and do it correctly the second time.
Please follow as I will keep everyone up to date of the happenings here on God's green earth.
