SNOW


** I had this post in a draft from a few weeks ago. Although the snow is now gone and the lawn is showing her green again, I thought it really is too pretty not to show you. So for those who think Christmas isn't complete without a snowfall ... here it is.


For someone who is a real summer girl, I can't resist the first pretty snowfall of the season. We received a blanket of snow today that left the trees painted in white flakes. I love how quiet the snow is. I stopped several times while shoveling the driveway just to hear the whisper of the snow falling. It really is a picture of beauty.





Our church - Saint Andrews, is pretty at any time, but especially with a winter wonderland framing it.



I may need to look back at this post in February when I'm fed up with the snow. But today it is a pretty picture.


How about you - are you a lover of summer or snow?

A Day to Reflect





Quietly we stand together to pray and give thanks for those who gave everything for our freedom. 
We pray for Peace.

Start the Weekend




It's been a busy week, but it's time to get the weekend started. 


On the menu :
A girls day with my sister. Tap and ballet classes with my Granddaughter. A little grey root cover-up appointment with my stylist. Snuggled up in the media room for a movie or two with Richard. A bit of leaf raking. And a few rounds of the Frozen board game with our Granddaughter.



How about YOU? What's on your weekend menu?
