Here We Snow Again!


Today, we are enjoying a Winter Wonderland here in Georgia! We got 5 inches of snow yesterday! We got a little snow back in January, but this is the real deal. Enough snow for snowmen, snowball fights and sledding with whatever you got. This southern girl loves it! Its enough to play in and enjoy, but thanks to the sun and above freezing temperatures, it will be gone soon and we don't get trapped in our house for days on end. Perfect!

Here's what our yard looked like as the snow began around 1:30 yesterday afternoon:


Here's what it looks like this morning with 5 inches on the ground:


The girls have had a great time playing in it. We don't have sleds at our house, but we do have a boogie board and they put it to good use:



Our dog, Jenna, is a Siberian Husky, so snow is right up her alley. She is loving it!


And, of course we built a snowman. Right in the middle of our street!


I have some very happy children who are going to be very tired tonight! (I hope!)



What a great day!

When I Grow Up I Want to Be Betty White

I love Betty White. She is 88 years old and has still got it. She makes growing old look fun! She was hilarious this summer in "The Proposal" with Sandra Bullock. She had the best lines!

This year she received the Lifetime Acheivement Award from the Screen Actors Guild. Her speech was both funny and touching:




Then, last night during the Super Bowl, she was in this awesome commercial:



Betty White you rock!

My Church, God and Money

My church is really great! This past month we have been doing a series on God and money called "Economic Atheists". Did you know money is one of God's favorite topics in the Bible? Anyway, our Visual Arts team did a really funny video about what the Bible has to say about money and tithing.



Last year they did an awesome one about tithing:



Our pastor always says, "We take God seriously we just don't take ourselves seriously."
