Candles and Snow!

This past Monday was Aubrey's 9th birthday! She had school as usual but knew she would have indoor recess because it was cold and rainy. We had the WHOLE gang over for dinner- my mom, Barry, Missy, Will, Jessica and Callie. I like to stay in on their 'real' birthday and make their favorite meal. Aubrey's favorite meal was mine as a kid also....... Hamburger/Rice Casserole and you MUST have it with mashed potatoes and green beans. It is not the same without them! And a hot brownie sunday with hot fudge and LOTS of whip cream!

After dinner and dessert Dell told the girls to take a look outside. It was snowing! What a way to end a great birthday!


Here is something you don't see everyday..................... a cat on a big (dirty) snow ball!


What I'm thankful for...... the power of prayer. Today the girls had their Reading TAKS test. There was a lot of anxiety and many hours of tutoring to get them ready. They got off to school with a awesome breakfast. Biscuits, bacon and scrambled eggs. I'd like to say I make this for them every morning but it just doesn't happen. As I was driving them to school I told them that I would cover them in prayer today. I am thankful that I was able to send little popcorn prayers up for them all day.
