Where Has The Time Gone?!

Sydney Elizabeth turned 2 Feb 3rd! What an incredible ride the past 2 years have been. She is our little angel from God. Our ongoing prayer is that God leads us as we raise her to love Him. Sydney grows everyday, and boy what a blessing it is to be a part of it. She continues to keep us laughing til we want to cry (sometimes I do cry:)) and keeps us on our toes. Just today, I was getting her out of the tub and something happened (can't remember what...that was too long ago) that forced my to say, "oh shoot" .....which I then heard her say over and over..."oh shoot" "oh shoot." I quickly tried to change the subject and make a mental note never to say that again around big ears!

We had a Play Doh birthday party for her a couple weeks ago. We missed you Aunt KK and Uncle Matt and Gabby!

Fun in the SNOW

We dug ourselves out of the snow in Utah only to bring some home with us!! We went out there a couple weeks ago and had such a great time. Drew worked the first part of the week, and then the Connells and Purnells met us for some fun in the snow. Just during the week we were there, some parts of Utah got 3-5 FEET....I don't know exactly how much we got, but I do know that trying to walk in it wore us out! The only way to successfully get around in it was with skis or snowshoes on!

Seeing that amount of snow while surrounded by white mountains was a reminder to me of how big God is. What a mighty God we serve.

Here are a few pics to document these wonderful memories!!


Syd sure loved eating the snow while I became a big fan of eating Julie's delicious snow cream!!!!! YUMMY
