How did we get missed???

  There was Spring type weather all the way from Georgia up to about an hour from the Canadian border.  Somehow we seem to have missed the memo that it's Spring.  There is more snow here than when we left.  It's up as high as 6 feet behind the house.  Elyssia's playhouse is getting harder and harder to see.  I'm not sure how quickly it will melt, but I'm thinking that we might have a lot of work in store for us.  I long for Spring, but not the muddy messy part of it:).  I'm at the point where I'm going to be thankful to see the grass again though and will gladly accept the mud along with it. We might need to shove some snow away from the house to avoid flooding when it does melt.  So much to think about and do.  The last of 4 loads of laundry is in the dryer.  The enchiladas for tomorrow's potluck is in the fridge.  There are fresh cookies and the cake has been ordered, thanks to the kindness of a lady in our church.  Tomorrow is the 2nd Anniversary of our church! So excited and praying that the roads will be clear enough for us to get there and back safely tomorrow.  We have an appt. on Monday to have the tire put on the van and get some groceries.  I'm thankful that we picked up milk and eggs on the way home.  We haven't gone out since arriving and I've already used quite a bit of milk and one of the cartons of eggs:).  What can I say, there's a hungry crew living here.
  Tonight's post may seem a bit boring compared to the past couple weeks, but such is life.  Coming back from vacation and adjusting to normal living again.  When I start to miss my family, the Lord reminds me of those lost in the Tsunami.  When I'm tempted to complain about the snow, the Lord reminds me of the destruction in Japan.  A little water in the house, if it comes, will be nothing compared to seeing you house and family washed out to sea.  We're praising the Lord tonight in our little house here on the prairies.  Thankful for the time away and the safe travels home. Looking forward to fellowship in HIS House tomorrow!  Good night y'all.  Couldn't resist:).
