Acting on a need expressed by our church home group, the Lord gave me the idea to host a Father/Daughter banquet near Valentines. The theme was on capturing your daughter’s heart.
Brian and Stacie put most of the decorative touches on the room (I made the balloons).
We took pictures of each “couple” and developed them while everyone was eating. They then decorated frames and mats for the pictures.
My Dad and I spoke on Father/Daughter relationships, encouring the dads to invest in their daughters and steer them towards purity. What a neat night.
Here’s another little film of Lance – poor kid, he’s going to enjoy having another baby around that will divert my attention away from every move he makes.
As for Lance, he has become quite efficient at the noble form of transportation, cruising. However, his parents seem to delight in making him grovel on the floor after his beloved paci.
What is winter without a little snow? (those of you up North, please don’t laugh)
Tuesday night began with some freezing rain, which turned to sleet, which eventually resulted in a dusting of snow.
We bundled up and took Lance out for his first experience – Brian was told to come to work late because of the road conditions. We took a quick tour around the area, examining icicles and sliding on ice patches then back inside before we froze!
Lance and the icicles. Today Brian called after driving to work and said it was really pretty out with a fog and frosted yards. So Lance and I bundled up for a winter walk….15 minutes later we headed out the door 🙂
Our favorite park with a little snow that didn’t melt from yesterday. Walking in the “frozen fog” as the weather report described it was mysterious and beautiful. Every time the sun peeked through the clouds, the fog sparkled like swirling glitter.
Here’s where someone walked through the frozen grass to avoid an icy sidewalk. This bush got an icy shower from a sprinkler!
A frozen dandelion. Maybe if I make a wish with this one we’ll get enough snow to go sledding!
