Walkin' in a Winter Wonderland!

This is kind of our kids' first snow. At least the first they remember and have gone out to play in. Tim kept Ellie inside while the others' and I went out. We didn't stay long due to 20 degree temps (and the fact that I still only have one glove...I do have the yarn now!). They had a great time though. Really tickled pink!Such a ham!

A Tale of Two Posts

Tim got me a fabulous new camera for Christmas. I have not used it enough, though. It's purple...how cool is my husband!!! Anyway, I've been trying to make up for my lack of pictures so today, there will be two posts, contain yourself Mom, of pictures. Enjoy!

the girl is having a serious bad hair day!

Lydia is trying to learn to dress herself--look closely!

I actually think that's pretty talented...let's just say I don't think I could get mine on backwards.

This is the inside of our window. We are thinking these are EPA approved or Energy Star rated!

Procrastination

Through the Holiday season, I have found many things to pull my attention from the Blog. I wish I was one of those fabulously organized people, but God created me to be one of those easily distra--ooooh, what's that---ahem, I think I was saying something about wishing I was more organized. One of the many New Year's Resolutions that I have is becoming a "finisher." I often start projects and then find another project that is more appealing. For example. I wanted matching hat, gloves and scarf. I have finished the hat and one glove. Yep, just one. It was so tedious to knit the little fingers (and I need to buy another skein of yarn) that I am dreading knitting up the other glove. Tim says I should just keep one hand in my pocket, but really that skirts the real problem I need to finish it because the Bible says, whatever you find to do, do it well. I'm assuming that means finish it. Anyway, hopefully, this year I will be better about finishing projects and posting on my blog...we'll see. Here are some recent, you know, the last month or so, pictures...oh, and Ellie is walking, I mean running!
