Snow!


SNOW, how I love you! How I wish you would keep falling!
I've been waiting so very long for your appearing.
Please stay awhile....

Farther Along

I quite like Josh Garrels' version of an old favorite of mine, Father Along.




It is comforting to know that many of the battles we face are only a matter of perspective. The battle has already been won, we need only to bring the victory into our situation. Farther along, we'll understand the 'why' of our struggles but, for now, we just need to obey and love Jesus.

I'm willing to do that.

Lovely Sledding on New Years Day


What a glorious day! We went up through Big Cottonwood and Bryan found a great place to sled. Shya was a champ from the first run and laughed uproariously all the way down the hill. She would zoom down the mountain, catching air over the bumps and crash at the bottom, laughing her head off! She would grab the sled and tow it up the hill and do it all over again. Definitely has Viking blood in her veins! Our boys, Hunty and Samson tolerated it but didn't really dig it the way Shya did. We're going to make it a family tradition for New Years, it was so much fun!
