Elf Yourself

Thanks Michelle, for choosing the whitest picture of me you could possibly find. However, I applaud you for Rachels pic, it is quite appreciated.

Snow Day with Brin

Turns out this little munchkin loves the snow! After I finished my classes for the day I went over to Rachel's and we took Brinley out to play in the first serious snowfall of the winter season.

She's fallen and can't get up

"up?"

We weren't out for long since the snow was half as tall as she was, but it was great to see how she reacted to the snow and contemplated what on earth this mystical white wonderland was.
Now if only the roads were heated as to avoid driving in it....

Taste of Heaven

Last week, after a long and cold day at work, I got a little taste of Heaven as I was driving home.

apologies for the windshield bugs and motion blurriness 

The sun was setting and created a stunning view as the colors danced behind the mountain. It is the simple things in life that take me back, especially when it comes to the beauty of this earth, and I am grateful everyday to be a part of it.
