What are our goals as parents? We believe that it is not only to be 'tall trees' ourselves, planted firmly by streams of living water, rooted deeply in the Lord, but also to raise up 'tall trees' of our precious children. That's what we're trying to do around here, and we'd like to share with you just some of the things we're doing as a family on our journey of growth in the Lord. We hope you enjoy the adventures!

Snow Day!

February 24th:

We had almost 2" of snow!


Which the boys rolled up into big snowballs

 and built a ski run for their playmobil and lego guys.


I wish I had had toys like this when I was a kid!

Aren't they cute when they get along?

This was the first round of snow we had recently.  Then it rained, and rained harder, and then turned to snow!  

February 28th:
When round two was all done, we had almost 2 inches of standing water masquerading as snow!  Which is the stuff that caused us to find out that our 4-wheel drive was not engaging on the Suburban.  That made things a bit of a 'hoot' as we attempted to get Nathanael to guitar practice (up the hill with almost 7 inches of mostly real snow - not so wet there)!  Anyway, the Lord provided an adventure that ended happily (we didn't end up way down over the bank in the Chiropractor's yard) with us getting home and appreciating the warm house and no guitar lessons.  And later when I took the Suburban to the dealership to have them check it out to see why the 4-wheel drive didn't engage, it was working by then.  

Of course it was!
