In His Image

Then, Snow!!

April 7th, 2008

Yesterday was just a gorgeous day, full of sunshine and warmth.  I think it reached almost 50 degrees.  Then this morning we woke up to over 10 inches of white snow.

This picture was taken Friday evening and it looked the same yesterday evening.  See that van back there.

This is the same one here! We ended up this evening with over 17" of snow!! It snowed all day, sometimes so hard that we couldn’t see 100 yards!  Stills at it too!  We canceled church since some of our members have to drive at almost two hours and those closer, still need to drive almost 30.  We called the neighbors and my folks up and invited them to have a service at our house and to share the day together!

What a blast!  It was so fun to just relax have fun today as an extended family of God’s children. 

IMG_0753 We made a spring bunny, (the snow wouldn’t pack good enough to make a snowman, so we settled for whatever we could pack together in place.)  We ate lunch and supper together, had a snowball fight, played games, sat around with our guitars and sang for awhile.  It was just a very enjoyable day!!

It was wonderful to not have to worry about plowing, God will melt it in a day or so, or to worry about going anywhere, just can’t do it. (Dawson tried to make it around our loop of a driveway and it took him almost an hour, he got stuck twice and he had 4 wheel drive.)  Kinda reminded me a little bit of heaven.  There won’t be any worries there, the joy of the Lord is in our hearts, singing praises to our Redeemer, loving God, loving each other.  Makes me want to go there, Ya wanna join me?

    17″ of snow! We haven’t had that much all winter. Cerwin mentioned that it looked like Bemidji got a lot of snow yesterday. He’s been keeping an eye on the weather across the United States this week. Tomorrow we leave here – driving a chapel to Chilliwack, British Columbia. I am so excited about driving cross-country. We have never done that. We will be gone for three weeks – a week driving out, a week at Chilliwack, and a week home.

    I can’t believe it!!! I always wish for one big snow each winter, but like Doris Jean said, we didn’t even get close to a total of 17 inches all winter long. I hope Grandpa has lots of pictures when he gets back.
