Where is Spring?

Sunday we awoke to 8 inches of snow!! On the 9th day of spring??!! What is wrong with this picture? I am so glad we had our Yard Sale two weeks ago while it was still nice outside. The snow was so wet and heavy we couldn't get out of the house because it had drifted up against the screen door and not until we had missed church, had breakfast, and bemoaned the loss of our day did Jordan finally think about crawling out the front porch entry which was packed with Yard Sale stuff. He crawled out and shoveled out the main entry and then shoveled a path out of the driveway. Jennifer went out and helped him and they both saved the day! We missed church but were filled with awe at the hand of God in the form of His sovereignty. He determines where the snow falls (and rain) and when the sun shines! Our God Reigns!!

Jordan's one day in the water!


Yes, Jordan survived although 82 others didn't!

Fearless daughter loving the view.

Kauai - The Windy Island

We joke about it now... We flew to Kauai to freeze. The weather was not very cooperative for ocean fun and sun but the beauty of the island was still breathtaking.
