We've had more winter in the last week than we did all of Dec, Jan & Feb combined I think!  We've been enjoying our evenings by the fire:

Just an update on my grandma - she is home now and is able to stay by herself.  The first week she was home we organized 24/7 care for her but I think just being home has helped her to feel better and she is able to be by herself now.  We did get her one of those "Help, I've fallen and I can't get up" buttons to wear, it gives us all peace of mind.  She has some wonderful friends and church family that help us by checking in on her usually a couple times a day and bring meals, so she is still not usually alone for very long. 

The doctors diagnosed her with a rare auto-immune disease that is attacking her kidneys ( there is really no way to know what triggered it).  She has suffered some kidney function loss but the doctors are managing what she has left.  She feels okay, the medications she's on make her feel jittery and nervous, so hopefully when the dosages are lowered or she is able to come off some of the meds she will feel more normal.  Our family appreciates your prayers.   

Look what we woke up to Tuesday morning:

Here we are 2 weeks until Spring and getting SNOW!  Of course I'm not complaing, I'm lovin' it!  We are actually expected to get more overnight.  Hopefully, we will wake up tomorrow to a winter wonderland.

I recieved my "reveal package" today from my Secret Sister - Katia!!!!  I was so excited to find out it was her.   Look at all the goodies:

Thank you so much Katia, you have really blessed me by praying for me and sending the lovely notes of encouragement and fun treats.  You are a sweetheart!
