Merry Christmas y'all!
(Originally posted Dec. 17) In light of our recent ice storm, the extended power outage, and the massive clean-up that is underway, I wanted to go ahead and post this since I doubt I'll be doing much blogging in the next few weeks.
Yesterday was a special joy and blessing as our church family gathered for worship even though there was no heat or lights--power had not yet been restored to that part of town. We all bundled up, brought flashlights and worshipped our wonderful God who is in control of everything--including ice storms.
Later in the afternoon three men from church came over--chainsaws in hand--and transformed our yard from a 'war zone' back into a safe place to walk and play. What an amazing and humbling thing that brothers-in-Christ would give up their Sunday afternoon to do this--we have been greatly blessed!

Hi Connie...what a lovely family you have! Also, your report of worshipping without utilities really struck me. We modern Christians are spoiled. But I do hope you get your power back soon!
Thank you so much for reading and commenting on my blog...I really appreciate it!
GREAT picture Connie!

Merry Christmas to you and your beautiful family! I hope you all are staying WARM!
I came across your blog and see that you have an interest in adoption. Here is a video we made and hope it can be used in adoption awareness.
