Snow Day!

It snowed here in Roseburg last Wednesday night! We were coming out from a church service and there it was --- SNOW! It was lovely! I looked like a little kid! I think the friends I've made in the church were more excited for me. I got to throw the first snow ball at Matt that night too! It was just plain fun. God is so good! He cares about the little stuff that makes you smile.

It was snowing the next day also so all of us - Matt and I with Mom and Dad (Coil) went out for a drive and played with the snow. It was so pretty outside and the way the grass was covered with the snow. And the snow was just perfect - it wasn't too deep at all. Just enough to make a big snow ball by yourself.

We went to a neighbor's yard and built her a snow man with little snow dogs for her birthday. It was great! And then went to a local park near our place where Matt and mom built a big snow ball! It might look like it's pretty easy to make, but it took energy and a little bit of strategy to make it look like a ball instead of a dysfunctional square. But they did it!

Oh we had fun that day and we just took advantage of the snow too. It was a special treat for us.. God is sooo good!


Matt and I wednesday night after church service at mom and dad's backyard.. doing our traditional pose!

This is the view in front of the house thursday morning.. isn't it beautiful? I love all that white snow! God bless America!

Me thursday morning at the backyard.. very pretty! There is just something beautiful in every season.. It kept snowing that day.

Matt and I in one of the places that we drove to that morning. It was sooo pretty with all those trees lined up! It was just a beautiful sight..

Here is the snowman that we built with mom for our neighbor. The snowman was leaning backward and it looked like it was about to fall.. but we made her happy!



Here's mom and Matt with the big snow ball! Now, that was very creative. It took commitment, determination, skill and endurance!
