A Beautiful Snow Day

We had a beautiful day of snow today in the Ozarks! I went and got Hunter around 2:00 today and we played all afternoon, we were both soaking wet and freezing at 5:00 when we went in the house. We had snowball fights, built a snowman and played with the sled (got my workout today by dragging Hunter around the yard on it). We made some M&M, chocolate chip cookies and ended the night watching a Christmas movie Hunter picked out. I love, love, love to see Bart, Hunter and Sammi when it is TV time at night, this is how it usually looks...with me on the couch and them all sitting in a chair! It warms my heart to see Bart and Hunter in their usual spots loving each other they way they do. I keep reminding Bart that Hunter will be too big very soon to do that, so he needs to cherish it.

Chucky Cheese PLEASE...

We went to Springfield this past weekend to start looking at furniture for the office. It was so cold outside anyway, I couldn't have imagined being stuck in a house with Hunter all day trying to keep him entertained. We did however have to make a deal with Hunter, if he was good for the couple stores we went to, we could go to Chucky Cheese! He did not make a peep and followed us around like a little pup. He even went to Sam's Club with us and was great! He also had a really great report card, so Chucky Cheese was an award for that as well. Luckily we made it part of the deal to eat somewhere good before going to CC, thank goodness! B- gave him his own money and he spent it in about 45 minutes. I don't know who enjoyed Chucky Cheese the most, H- or B-!

Higher level of living and loving!

God always wants to increase us, do more in and through us. I know He wants to raise me up to a higher level of living and loving. He did not create any of us to be average. I am not going to settle for good enough - I am going to press forward to the next level!!







Somtimes I let the wrong things take over my mind. Things have really been interesting lately and I have to remind myself of all the wonderful things in my life.
