Let it snow!

I was kinda disappointed cause I didn't get any good pics of our first snowfall besides a quick one on my phone before heading down to Andrews a couple of weeks ago. I'd had high hopes at the time that it would be there when I got back, but it wasn't. When I woke up yesterday and looked out my window every branch was laced in white! I was so excited. I had learn my lesson, I would get some picutures before going to work beacuase 1. I knew it would melt and 2. it would be dark when I got home. Sure enough, that was the reality, and now we hardly have more than an inch. 

I want to dedicate this post to Bethany Gerber who is in Tanzania. Hope this gives you a taste of home. I know your missing snow and here's some to bringthen you day! :) 

a sunset...

Over the last month, there have been some of the most beautiful sunrises and sunsets. I think its because I actually see them either when I am driving to or from work and school. I've often thought that it would be awesome if I could drive and take pictures at the same time but that would be a fail. I just love how every sunset and sunrise is different, God is truly the best artist ever. When I see the painting that he had set in the universe I think of the verse that says the heaven's declare the glory of God and the firmament showeth his handiwork.
