January 2011

We had such a wonderful time with my friend Amy, even though we were stuck inside most of the time. She will just have to come again so that we can go to the children's museum and glazed (pottery place). How thankful I am for a friend who would travel all the way from Vermont with her almost 2 year old (tomorrow) to visit me!

It was nice to work today!!!
We were hoping to have a Skin's hot dog for supper tonight, but they closed at 4:00 p.m. to be sure that their employees could get home safely. I do understand, but a hot dog would have been yummy!
We are still having church tonight :)! It will be nice to get out for a bit, even if the turn out is small. The joys of snow in the south. It is pretty, and the sun has been shining. No complaints here.

Another snow day. Who would have imagined? And schools are out again tomorrow. We had to get out of the house this morning, so Daniel, my friend and her little girl, and I "crunched" on ice down to the park and back. It was fun just to be outside. Late this afternoon the sun peeked out. That was refreshing! I do love the beauty of the snow, but enjoy it even more when the sun is shining. If the Lord ever moves us to a frozen tundra climate, I know He will help me adjust. Until then, I am content with my SC snow days!

We had a yummy lunch. My friend made this recipe when I visited her, and I have wanted to make it since then, so today was the day. Murphy's Hot Hamburger. It's a yummy recipe! A couple of steps, but well worth the effort. At least we think so!

And we finished tonight with a milkshake from Cook Out. Oh the joys of a snow day! Back to work tomorrow :).

Snow. It really snowed, and it snowed a LOT!

8 & 9/365

Yesterday was such a fun, busy day I just didn't have time to post (or rather make time). So today is 2 for 1.

Funny birthday story. We met with the family at Chickfila for free spicy chicken biscuits for breakfast, and after we had been there awhile, the manager came up to us and asked if we were the birthday party. We told him, "well, it is our birthday, and we all came to get our free biscuits." We weren't the party he was looking for. A 3 year old came in shortly after!

Will it snow? We shall see. I do remember the snow from 1988. It came January 7, and I remember on our birthday (8th) eating at shoney's with all that snow outside. I am almost surprised it was open. I was wearing a brown sweater that Aunt Carol had made.

Tonight we had a party (for the kiddos) with my friend Amy, and her daughter and Daniel and Benton. We were all expecting our first babies at the same time, so they were all born within a month of each other. Pictures of the kiddos to come soon!!!
