~ New Template ~

Posted in Ramblings
Yep, I've been at it again, I've changed my template.  I wanted to do something different, and I'm not to sure of this one.  But I need to see it out there for a while before I decide.  We'll see if it stays this way or not. 

We've been having a real good weekend.  Paul has hurt his back a little, and needs to rest.  But he's also in charge of shoveling all the sidewalks at his work.  And we just got another 3 or 4 inches of snow the other day.  So we all went with him yesterday and pitched in and helped him shovel the snow.  It was a fun, family time, though very cold.  We got it all done within an hour, much quicker than if he had been by himself.  Then we got home in time for eating dinner and church.  It was a great day.

Thankfully the weather has cleared up around here.  I really pray it stays that way.  We've had a week of clouds and snow.  Getting at least an inch of snow every day.  We were in a blizzard warning starting last night, though thats been canceled now.  Today is sunny, only a little clouds, though it is cold.  I am just so blessed for the sun and clear skies.  When we moved we thought there would be less snow out here.  So far, we've gotten more snow the where we use to live.    But everyone I talk to say this isn't normal, so that's good.  And right now, they are saying sunny the next few days, and even in the mid 30's next week.  That would be so nice.

We are having our friends over for New Year's Eve.  The ones we had to cancel with on Christmas Eve.  Well, that's if the weather holds out.  As long as it's not snowing, they should make it.  We are really excited about this.  We like doing game nights and munching all night long.  We've been doing it with family the past 4 years, but we use to do it with friends too, when we lived in Illinois.  It will be fun.  My nephew might show up too.  No matter what, it should be good.

Well that's it for now.  I hope everyone is having a great weekend.

I saw the blizzard warnings for your area and wondered how things were going. I am glad it was not too bad. I like what you've done so far with your blog. May I suggest checks or strips in addition? I am big on strips, if you have not noticed. Have fun tomorrow. Jeff and I will be going on a date, thanks to my mom and dad.

The template is very pretty. I think it's really cool that you and the kids pitched in to help your hubby out with the shoveling of the snow. I bet He was happy too. Have a geat dinner with your friends and a happy new year.
Be blessed,
Stacy

Sorry to hear about Paul's back. :( I'm glad your blizzard warning got canceled!!!! :) We haven't had a blizzard around here since I think it was 1978. I was just a little girl, so I can't really remember it. I'm sure I was just happy for the snow and that school was canceled! :)
