Margie’s troop went Ice Skating on Friday night. She had a great time and she did a good job skating too.
I had a great time watching her and everyone there. It was so fun to watch everyone skating, they were all smiling and laughing. I found my self smiling and laughing right along with them, of course I was safe on a chair in the heated room but I still had a great time!
Margie’s Valentine Box
We had a fun time making it and we both learned a little bit more about a glue gun. That glue is HOT!
My furnace wouldn’t kick on yesterday around 6pm so it was a chilly evening, luckily we have some electric heaters. This morning was very cold!
The Luikart man came out and fixed it right up! Now it’s toasty warm!
Here’s 2 pics from Crest View;
The snow finally stopped and the sun came out
The snow plows finally came to our road!
My wonderful brother came and plowed the driveway!
We cleaned off the car
Had some time for some photo shots
Of course the typical ice storm photo…I think they are so cool!
And then I locked the keys in the car, lucky for me that Margie is a wiz getting keys out of cars!
And that was a snow day afternoon.
My alarms were going off and then the phone rang. I thought it would be the recorded voice of Scott Prebles telling me that school was canceled but it wasn’t, it was my boss from work. I sleepily said hello, realized that there was a real, live human being on the other end and frantically turned off my three alarm clocks.(those of you who know me can appreciate that detail)
“We’re closed?” I said
“Yes, closed”
I said, “Like an inclement weather day?”
He said, “No, like closed”
I scrunched my face and tried to comprehend what that meant
“So, I shouldn’t come to work?”
“No, the building is closed!”
“Closed? Oh…okay…well, Thank you for calling”
The Mechano-Scott Prebles called a few minutes later to tell me that school was closed too. Should I clean my car off? Or have another cup of coffee and look out my window, willing the snow to stop. Praying for mercy! Below is what I see when I look out my windows because I’m not ready to go outside yet. And a picture of the kids doing the paint by number thing which last like 2 minutes!

I’m excited to start a new Sunday School series. The previous series was From the Garden to Egypt. It was good to read through Genesis with my newly renewed mind, I admit I’ve never read the Bible like that. I always read assigned passages looking for the answer to the questions in the lesson. This time I read through it like it was the first time I’d heard the stories…I was missing so much.
This new series is about the Messiah and we started our first lesson with the book of Isaiah, which I’ve never read. (I memorized verses in chapter 53) I’m looking forward to the new study.
I used to have a life verse and to be honest I cannot remember what it was, is that a clue? I have found a passage of scripture that I always come back to when I’m leafing through the Bible. Each time I read it I find something new, a new application a new way to see things.
1O lord, thou hast searched me, and known me.
2Thou knowest my downsitting and mine uprising, thou understandest my thought afar off.
3Thou compassest my path and my lying down, and art acquainted with all my ways.
4For there is not a word in my tongue, but, lo, O LORD, thou knowest it altogether.
5Thou hast beset me behind and before, and laid thine hand upon me.
6Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; it is high, I cannot attain unto it.
7Whither shall I go from thy spirit? or whither shall I flee from thy presence?
8If I ascend up into heaven, thou art there: if I make my bed in hell, behold, thou art there.
9If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea;
10Even there shall thy hand lead me, and thy right hand shall hold me.
11If I say, Surely the darkness shall cover me; even the night shall be light about me.
12Yea, the darkness hideth not from thee; but the night shineth as the day: the darkness and the light are both alike to thee.
13For thou hast possessed my reins: thou hast covered me in my mother’s womb.
14I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.
15My substance was not hid from thee, when I was made in secret, and curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth.
16Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect; and in thy book all my members were written, which in continuance were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them.
17How precious also are thy thoughts unto me, O God! how great is the sum of them!
18If I should count them, they are more in number than the sand: when I awake, I am still with thee.
19Surely thou wilt slay the wicked, O God: depart from me therefore, ye bloody men.
20For they speak against thee wickedly, and thine enemies take thy name in vain.
21Do not I hate them, O LORD, that hate thee? and am not I grieved with those that rise up against thee?
22I hate them with perfect hatred: I count them mine enemies.
23Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughts:
24And see if there be any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.
I love this Psalm!
Noah played his first official school football game against the Heath Bulldogs. He plays offense but likes defense better. He’s # 93
I like this picture. It’s Noah, his best friend, cousin and team mate walking out for the play.
Here he is on the sideline taking a rest
Waiting to go in
Getting a drink and talking
Little fans enjoy the game
The score (Noah’s team was the Guest)
