SNEAK ATTACK

Monday, February 15th, 2010

See down there….that’s a long way to fall!

And that’s what will happen if my husband climbs onto our roof to repair the stopped up frozen gutters. Moments ago, we heard a terrible sound to homeowners….water pouring out onto hardwood from the top of the bay window. It appears the water is leaking back under the overhang and coming inside. This is not good, not good at all! We could have serious damage if this doesn’t stop.

See why I don’t want hubby on our slippery, frozen and very high roof? It’s not a good day for this type of situation! Oh wait, it’s not even daylight anymore either. It’s 11pm!

Jesus
We need your help! Please stop that water from destroying our walls, window and roof. Help me to be still and know….you are in control here.
Thank you Lord
Amen

Reason to celebrate

Thursday, February 11th, 2010

Let me tell you about the guy my kids call Poppy! To the world….he may look like just another grandfather. But to us….he’s our Poppy! There isn’t much our Poppy can’t do (at least that’s what we all believe!). He’s pretty handy to have around. If it’s broken, he’s going to tinker with it until it’s fixed. If there’s a problem, he’s going to try his best to work it out. There isn’t much we can’t go to Poppy for. He’s always there for any of us and we know it. He’s good! Inside and out!

He’s always been good! Even growing up. My husband likes to tell about how Poppy was selected to be a deacon at a very young age by his church. He wasn’t even married. That just wasn’t normal. Poppy had a big heart for God even then. He’s been a wonderful husband and father (my husband and his brother are living proof of his care for them).

I’m thankful for you Poppy! You’ve been a great encouragement to me and to our family for the last 20+years. We couldn’t have made it many times without you and your wisdom. Thank you! I love you and so does my family!

So here’s to you……on your birthday! I hope God blesses you right where you are…in sunny Florida (we’re snowed in, ya know?) Enjoy your special day!
And know WE LOVE YOU very much!

Uncle Dean, hubby, Gavin & Poppy

P.S.
I didn’t want to mention it….but you have to keep an eye on Poppy when it comes to food! He has terrible allergies and tends to pick up things that he’s not supposed to have! So, Poppy! Stay away from the kitchen! Unless properly supervised! 🙂

The Great Winter White-Out of 2010

Tuesday, February 9th, 2010

I’m happily blogging from inside where it’s warm and cozy. We’ve obviously had a snow day today and just got the call that we’ll be out again tomorrow. Our community is under level 3 warning….what’s that mean? Not totally sure, just stay off the roads unless you’re in an emergency situation! You don’t have to tell me twice! I was out for a bit today with Gates….because the poor kid had an orthodontist appointment in this weather! It was not a pleasant run! The roads are pretty much awful! We did a bit of slip-sliding but made it home safely!

Wherever you are….I hope you’re nice and warm too! Enjoy this winter weather…..it seems to be getting just about everyone on the radar screen! My plan is to stay inside and watch a movie or two. Oh, and eat! Don’t judge me….it’s for hibernation reasons, really!

Don’t look now, it’s a flying snowbunny!

Two sweet girls….Maggie and Gates!

Me…enjoying a “little” snow…

One word….

SUPERBOWL!!

It’s what we’ve been dreaming of all season! The Colts…..at the Superbowl! I’ve had a nervous stomach all weekend. Yea, I’m a bonafide fan! I bleed BLUE & WHITE! Peyton Manning and the boys….well, they ROCK!

My whole family loves this team! They have entertained us every weekend during football season for many years. Tonight, a victory would only make us love them more (if that’s possible!). A loss….would bum us out, but we’ll still love them!

Here’s some Colts pregame fun in pictures! Now, I gotta go…..there’s 5:34 left in the 4th and the score is N.O. 24—IND 17!
They need me screaming! 🙂
