Update 7 of the Photo Challenge and some Midweek Tidbits

 
 
A short update since I just did this a few days ago...

 Deathcicles or Icicles....that is the question.  I must say, I am going to walk out of the way as these beauties melt.

I found when I look up, I can visualize Spring because I don't see all of the remnants of winter :)

Spring colors are so beautiful and in this case, they taste great too.

 
Around here this week .....
 
We have had another ice storm.
 
Madi had two root canals.  The girl didn't even need any more pain reliever after the initial dose.  Wow, what a tough cookie.
 
I had to take another vacation day due to Dentist/Ice Storm.  I do not like using them up on these things.  I like to use them for pool days you know.
 
I must admit, I think I am feeling a little depressed and suffering from a bad case of cabin fever. I am thankful for the warmer temps and even took  a walk at work on my break....I needed that.
 
We had tuna noodle casserole for supper last night.  That is one of my favorite meals.  Good for the soul food.
 
Lucy and Madi have been Rainbow Looming their little hearts out.  Madi has gotten very good with hers.  These are the little looms use to make bracelets out of small colored bands that remind me of the ones on my braces from years ago.  I would have been so into that as well at that age, kind of like friendship beads were for us.  You know, the beads strung on safety pins and then pinned to your shoe laces.  The colors all meant something.  We were so cool :)
 
Katie has her last two dances this week for Basketball, Madi finishes up volleyball,  and Cassie signed up for track (I find this kind of funny). 
 
Happy Wednesday!!

Friday's Fav Five

Today I am joining it with a new link up for me.  It is hosted by  Living to Tell the Story .   My Friday Fav Five list goes something like this... 1. My three older girls were still up watching television together when I went to bed last night.  My room is right next to the living room so I could hear their conversations.  Although I wasn't ease dropping, I did start to listen.  They were talking about casual and personal things.  I realized that they are all growing up and their conversations with each other are growing as well.  It was like listening to a group of 3 women talking over coffee.  My heart wanted to burst and I may have teared up or actually cried..... maybe. I am so thankful for this wonderful bond they will have with each other for the rest of their lives. 2.  I am just thankful it is Friday.... we have had snow and strep throat at our house this week.  I am ready to shut the books on this we...

On the Books for January 5, 2015

Today I am joining up with The Simple Woman to give you a peek into my daybook for this week...   Outside my window.... There is a light dusting of snow.  Nothing too intimidating...yet.   I am thinking... That a salad for lunch sounds good today.  I do not usually like salad so this is a little  weird. I am thankful... That I was able to spend quality time with my people the past week and a half.  I am wearing.... Work attire :( no more sweats until whenever I have to leave the house.   I am creating... I just purchased some new yarn over the weekend.  So I am getting ready to start a new scarf and some boot cuffs.   I am going... To Walmart on lunch.  Yep, back to normal this week.  I am wondering.... How many days until the next holiday :)  I am reading.... Just my devotional this week.  I am doing Jesus Calling again this year and maybe the Women of the Bible devotional as ...
