Snow Again

It snowed again last night, but these pictures are from earlier this week. 


The local cemetery. 




Our neighborhood

Our woods





Even though I'm not a huge fan of snow, it is fun to get a little in the winter.

New Post

Well, I guess it's 2022. I was thinking what I did last year was kind of cool. I took the best picture from each month of the previous year, so there were 12 cool pictures. Well, this year my pictures are all disorganized and crazy, so maybe I'll look for 6 of my favorite Baxter pictures and 6 of my favorite phone pictures. 

OK, I'll be back in a bit. 

Alright. So, here we have our Baxter photos. There's a lot of green because I love green.

The Joys of Springtime


The Fight Between Night and Day


Golden Glories

A Light in the Dark

Life Among Death

Captured in Shimmers


That was fun. Now to find some phone photos. See ya soon. 


So, I found a lot of pictures, but here are the 6 of what I guess are my favorites. Kind of hard to choose sometimes, but I don't want to bore you folks with billions of pictures. 

Little Girl

Water

The Time I Barely Made it Back to the House Before Being Dumped On

Time Keeps Moving

Autumn's Beauty

Winter's Diamonds


And we end on this picture my sister-in-law took at our wedding because I really like it, and our marriage was the biggest thing that happened to me last year. 

Blissful Contentment



🎉🎉Happy New Year to You!!!🎉🎉

Cheerios and Chicken Sandwiches

 


People want to know what I crave as a pregnant woman. Nothing really too interesting. Actually, it's less about what I crave and more about what I can actually get down my gullet. Apparently, I'm regressing back to childhood: Cheerios and milk are about the best thing in the world. 

One week I really wanted a McChicken sandwich. Sounds delicious, huh? A weird chicken patty, some soggy shredded iceberg lettuce, and a smudge of mayonnaise. I thoroughly enjoyed it. 

Cold bananas are quite tasty. 

Cold bagels with cold butter is a real delicacy. 

Yep. I do realize that was a lot of carbs. I do eat other foods because I know I need them. These are just my favorites.

The Wonder

 


The wonder of being a mother. 

I had my first doctor's appointment last week. They did an ultrasound, and it was so amazing to see my little child inside of me and then to hear the heart beat! Wow. The nurse was talking to me, but I couldn't reply because I would start crying if I did. It was one of the most amazing things I've seen. 

God is so awesome and kind and perfect. We feel very blessed. 

Sky




Jacob sent me this picture one day while he was working. He gets to some might nice places. 

This was the sunrise one morning after I dropped Jacob off at work. It was so brilliant. 


I thought the reflection in this big puddle was pretty cool.

Sky is nice. 

Happy Sunday!

30

 


It's Gabriel's Birthday. He's 30. He's getting old. Boy, all the kids in my family seem to be getting up there in age. To think, the youngest person will be 17 this year! Oh, man, we're a dying family. Haha! Just kidding, just a little drama, you know.

My Hero


My hero knew how to laugh in pain and suffering. I've been having it rough lately because I'm pregnant!
Yep. Pretty exciting, but I've been pretty sick. Sometimes it's really hard to be happy when I feel so gross. However, I often think of my hero, Micah, who felt so bad so often for 4 years of his life. He still joked, laughed, and had fun. Not always, of course. Even he had really bad days, but I look at this picture and notice his yellow skin, his scrawny legs, his vibrator, and...his smile. I want to learn from his example and be more excited about life even when I feel like a dump.
