SNOW.....day 6

Day six of our snow was the BEST!

The weather man had of course said we were going to be having rain all day,

but he was wrong. 

We had a BEAUTIFUL, soft snow fall the WHOLE day. 

I couldn't resist convincing the family to go on a walk. 

We had great fun sledding, and then hiking

on up to the market around the corner, for some hot drinks......

A perfect ending to our SNOW DAYS!!! 

It is now Monday and we still have very LARGE piles of snow

all over the city. 

We went out to eat tonight, and had to drive through

a very BIG puddle of water. 

I never imagined that flooding would be an issue here,

but I guess it is a possibility.

The Lord blessed us with a BEAUTIFUL, clear, sunny day today.

It was in the 40s, so still pretty chilly,

but how nice to have the sun out. 

I took the three older children around the block.

#1 and I walk/ran and #2 and #3 rode their bikes. 

I was thinking all the snow would be off the sidewalks,

but it was actually pretty dicey in some areas. 

How good to get out though! 

The pastor stayed home and washed the cars with the littles. 

He took #5 on a daddy-date this morning to run errands,

and get our pooch, Jessie's, hair cut. 

About mid-day, Ellie, Abby and I got out to see a movie.....

We Bought a Zoo. 

Pretty cute!
We recommend it!! (though be warned, it had a few naughty words....)

We then popped over to the mall to use

a gift certificate that Ellie had received for Christmas. 

Sweet girl time :) 

Back at home, we were greeted by our CLEAN puppy!
She looks like a little snow-white lamb after her hair is cut.
I have to admit, I love her.

..... then, out to eat with the whole fam ......

a great Monday. 

Thank you Lord for your MANY Blessings.
They are new every morning.
