No School today :(

Maddie had another hay day in the cottage today with her big sister. She loves that thing so much! Great job Ryan!
Here is the first of several pics I took of the winter weather we had last night.
And here you can see where our van was parked and exactly how much snow/ice Ryan had to try and battle to get out of the driveway to go to work at 5am.
The girls got matching hoodies, but Maddie wasn't going to hang around for the picture!
Such a ham! Kenzie posed for me so I could get a good pic of the hoodie. I really liked it and they were 40% off at Old Navy!
Kenzie "napping" in the cottage today!

The snow/ice build up on the back porch!
And more snow/ice build up on our back porch!
See the icecicles hanging from the swingset? How crazy!
I don't know what that pic is but it is white so there it is!The front walk way to the house. Iteresting!
Ryan made it safely to and from work today in this mess. I stayed in the house with the girls. There was no way I was going to take them out in the nasty weather. And that is that. We did get a valentine from Roy and Carol today. It was quite interesting because when they opened them, they traded movies and stuffed animals. Hmmm. Don't know what they were thinking. LOL!

The importance of connections

 Many times, we don't take the opportunity in life to think about connections. Much like the way legos connect to erect the building or vehicle you are trying to create, without connecting pieces, our lives would fall apart. It's not often that we take time to reflect on those connections in meaningful ways. If I am honest, when we moved from Indiana back to Florida, we didn't appreciate the connections we had and so as I look back I wonder what life would have been like if we'd not only appreciated those connections, but supported them in meaningful ways.  Since moving to Greenville, not only have we made connections, but we've made it a part of life to connect with those people we've met that have become more like family than friends. We took the time to find a church that really believes in connecting with their people and not in a way that makes the patrons of the church feel like they are just a player in the game of chess and that player's job is to be

Workout #27

So, here's the challenge. And above, you can see my entry. Kenzie had done crosswords or circle a words (I can't remember) with Gigi and I snapped a pic of her doing it. I absolutely love the design of the sketch we were supposed to use for this lo. It allows for a simple, yet stunning layout. It allows room for journaling as you can see that I added as well as plenty of negative space! And the breakdown goes like this, picture was taken from my collection, background paper was from k and company the best of k and company pad, the circles were literally just picked out of my scrap box. I didn't even look at the papers, i just did a random pick. the lettering was taken from an old sheet of alphas i had and I think they worked out great!!! Simple yet Stunning! Thank you Scrap Fit for the challenge.
