Jake was out of town for a few days to attend his Granddaddy's funeral.
Sounds like it was a sweet time and I'm sad that the girls and I had to miss it, but we prayed and thought about everyone a lot.
The weather has gone from horrid to amazing.
We spent one entire afternoon at the park, I ran in circles around the park for 30 min's while the girls played, then I pushed swings for a while (NOT my favorite pastime) and read a book. It was divine.
This morning we picked Jake up from the airport and then I got to run in this weather a second time!
I soo want to get used to this but I refuse to get my hopes up.
It IS the middle of February!
We got a coupon to join a farm co-op...that DELIVERS.
The first box came today and what the heck are these?:
And I will be making some new recipes this week that include things like: Leeks, turnips and rhubarb...because winter veggies rock....?
I have been completely consumed by ANOTHER young adult fiction book:
this is getting really silly....but dude, this book...you need a good fiction? it's GOOD!
Speaking of young adult fiction...I am now the proud owner of a Mockingjay pin.
Oh. yes. I. am.
Thank. you. very. much. (and thank you Melissa! my birthday present rocked!
I pinned it on my purse with pride)
The girls are so precious right now.
I was listening to someone say how they missed their kids as babies.
I do not.
It wasn't exactly a peaceful time for me ;-).
But this. THIS I will mourn leaving behind.
If I could have it my way I'd freeze them all RIGHT now. (I can say that since they're all in their beds sleeping and looking like little cherubs...tomorrow, when the cat fights start I may change my mind! but probably not)
God is good.
He's just good.
Praise the Lord, Hallelujah, Amen...He's got my world in His hands....He's good.

I'm SOOOOO glad you are enjoying Snyder's series--the second series (the Glass series) is just as good!
I feel like I should bow...*bowing* thank you, thank you very much! SO glad you love your rockin' pin! When I got off the phone with you the other day, I guess I had this look on my face and Isaak was like, "what's up?" I said, "Dang it, Holly totally guessed what I got her!" Isaak just shakes his head and says, "that.does.not.surprise. me." Buah ha ha ha ha!! We are freakishly the same.
And I just finished my other book so off to the Poison Study I go!
I'm so jealous of your weather. It is -34 C here right now :0( Think of me in your swing pushing.
