I tried to post some pictures for you all but it is not working right at the moment. Grrr. Oh well, I'm sure you have all seen lots of snow pictures already.

I've been stuck in this place with the kidlets for 4 days now. I decorated for christmas, cleaned the closets, rooms, kitchen, bathroom, etc. I did tons of christmas crafts with the kids, baked a bunch of yummy treats and now I'm not sure what to do with myself......AND I have not enjoyed a Starbucks coffee in as many days. Haha! Maybe tomorrow all will be normal again.

Well, there has not been much to blog about lately but I'm still here. I'm looking forward to putting up the Christmas tree on Sunday......and there might even be snow! I'm not counting on it as the forecast may change and snow is rare around here. I can always hope for it though.

Hmm..........yep, not much else to say. Hopefully something interesting will happen soon. I'm off to jump in the shower.

Alright, I'm off to by a coat with a hood on it! Why I waited 30 some odd years to own a hood and an umbrella is troubling to say the least. Maybe I won't melt now.

Pumpkin patch pics

I'm back baby! I've got a new computer (yay!) and yes my email is back in working order.

I got back last night from Women of Faith......pictures of my weekend can be found on Lee's site. When my dear friend asked if I wanted to go with her I really wasn't sure if I wanted to. It's been years since I've done anything like this and I wondered if I would enjoy it or not (I may have some issues when it comes to churchy stuff) I decide hey....why not! I've been learning lately that God speaks to me in many, many ways......churchy or not. I knew He'd have something there for me and I was right.

My highlights

-The incredible performances of Nicole Nordeman and Avalon. Very powerful. Talk about some serious talent. Nicole's song Hold On stood out for me.

-Walking through downtown Vancouver at 7:30 in the morning searching for a Starbucks. I was surprised by the amount of people living on the streets. We found the coffee shop and upon exiting a little old man was in front of me begging for food. I was more than happy to give him the banana bread I'd just purchased.

- Rooming with my bud in a cheesy east Van hotel. hahaha.

- Being reminded for 10 hours that God loves me just the way I am and that I have not messed up "the plan". ALL things work for good.....I believe it.

- Joy is found in the little things. Don't miss them.

- The little red car that could. We made it there and back in one piece. :)
