It's been winter "for real" in South Carolina over the past few days. We had Winter Storm Pax stroll through leaving his footprints. The Roosters have enjoyed it, especially not having school. I am so thankful we didn't loose power.
One of my dear, sweet friends had her baby girl Tuesday. Ellis is truly a miracle, and I am thrilled for Lisa, Clay and big brother Miller. Lisa has such a huge heart and I just love her. We taught together many moons ago. Oh, the adventures we have had together. The Colonel nicknamed us Lucy and Ethel after a dinner party Lisa and I put together when I lived in Estill. I'll have to share that saga soon, as the things that happened that evening would only happen to Lucy and Ethel or to Lisa and myself. Whew.
Again, the pictures tell the story of what the Dew Crew have been up to over the last few days. Enjoy.
This is Lisa and Ellis. I can't wait to hold her and see her little baby feet. I love baby feet!! I'm already in love with that little chicken!
"Delight in the Lord and He will give you the desires of your heart."
~ Psalm 37:4
I'm so thankful that Lisa's prayers were answered and answered so perfectly.
This was the first snowflakes outside my classroom window Tuesday. We ended up getting out of school at 11:30.
Roosters were so excited to wake up to this yesterday morning. (Excuse the dirty window...I don't do windows!)
Hot chocolate and the latest edition of "In Style" that arrived right on time. It was the spring fashion edition.
I made cookies for the boys. They devoured this entire plate. I ended up having to make more from a tub of dough I had in the freezer. I "tried" to cut them into the shape of snowmen, but they looked like snowball blobs.
I decided to light our gas logs yesterday in case the lights went out. I didn't want to light these in the dark, so I thought it best to have them lit. I have never done it before and am very nervous about gas period. I know it can go "boom". A friend of mine singed her eyebrows off lighting a gas grill one time. Since the Colonel was at work and I didn't know if he would make it home, I decided to give it a try. I did it!! No "boom" and I still have my eyebrows!
How poor southern people sled in the south--Sterlite lids and a frozen very steep driveway. The Roosters had a blast.
Blake in the Colonel's old army uniform and boots.
WHAT?!! After I got my layers of clothes in the washing machine, I walked into the den and this is what I found. My instructions were "Take your wet clothes off in the laundry room and go get on some dry clothes."
I found this and the little Clucks sitting on the couch in just underwear playing their DS. BOYS! (Or at least MY boys)
Mom, my sled broke. (I had to go inside and get the Cluck another lid. It's not like we don't have a ton of them.)
Mom, I can't see like this!
The big kid
