A Snow Day

It has been snowing off and on since yesterday afternoon!! We have got about 9 inches!!Everything is beautiful now that the white snow has covered all the brown dirt. So today we relaxed at home! And I allowed myself to be kind of lazy! We don't get many of these kind of days so we have to take advantage of them!:) A few loads of laundry got done, meals made and the puppy played with and that is about all! So u see how it was a lazy day!! It's so cozy tho! This evening I am sitting here in my pj's and blogging / reading and drinking Chocolaty Chai Tea! Why don't you come on down! I would make you a hot drink too...

A Puppy Named Lexus

Friday we drove 2 hours to go get ourselves a puppy!! Her name is Lexus and she is a 6 week old rottweiler/lab cross.. She is quite  tiny still and definitely a baby!! She is going to be a definite outside dog tho! However for right now when she is small we have her in a pen in the garage.. She did quite a bit of crying at first... but she has settled way down already! So we are in for the joys of a chewing puppy an all the training that goes with! She sure is cute tho! :) And looks just like a rottie!!

Valentines Day

Happy Valentines Day to you all!! Did you do something special today?:)

Family Time

Tuesday  we went and met my Dad & Mom and K & J in St. Louis!! Their main destination is Ann Arbor to see S but they have been doing some other fun sight seeing on the way! We left here early morning and got to spend all morning with them at their motel! Went and had a quick lunch with them at Cracker Barrel yet before we both went our separate ways! Was short but so much fun!! Mom an me tried to get as much as possible said in a short amount of time!=)

Because He Lives...

Because He lives I can face tomorrow...
Because He lives all fear is gone...
Because I know He holds the future
And life is worth the living just because He lives!!
 
   This song has been special to me this morning... That even if I fall time and time again God still loves me so very much... And I can have a happy day instead of feeling so down from falling again! And it is all Because He Lives!!!

My Red Kitchen

My kitchen got a face lift!! Friday my MIL came and we taped everything off and got my kitchen all painted!! It is now a "Rustic Red" and I am happy with it! Maybe someday in the far off distant future I will paint my cabinets.... They will easily get me by till then tho!!
