You just KNEW these were coming…

Scenes from our Minnesotan Winter Wonderland!

Finally!!!

These were taken with our camcorder and are not HDTV-type images, but you get the idea. The first shot is of our intrepid 7-year-old: such a good helper for such cheap labor.


The second image needs no explanation, other than this is the view out my kitchen window. Now you know what I see when I’m doing the dishes, which is always a nice way to know a potential friend a little better.

And finally, here is proof that not only do I screen my calls, I also screen my children.


Have a beautiful, blessed day, everyone! And be of good cheer in praying that we Minnesotans get even more snow!

    Beautiful pictures!

    And I have to say that after my 12 days of being snowed in at my parent’s home in Colorado, you can KEEP the snow! This Texas chic has had her fill.

    Now, when will Spring get here?

    Can you send some of that beautiful snow up here, just a little further north in MN?

    I am trying not to be jealous šŸ™‚

    How wonderful Margaret. You have a little sledding hill! My kids are thrilled with the snow too and didn’t mind the cooler temps. They were just glad to be out in it.

    Enjoy the snow!!

    Oh, I miss snow! This transplanted Yankee is NOT thrilled with 80 degrees on January 15…come on!
    (My dh tells me it does snow here–about once every 10 years. So I just have 4 more years to wait…)Enjoy your snow!

    We had our first snow of the winter today – only about an inch, but beautiful anyway! I’m ready for a little more. God bless you and Baby!

    Hello again Margaret,
    Just wanted to let you know that I posted a picture of the view from MY kitchen window, and linked to this post. I was hoping we could get some other ladies to do the same. Wouldn’t that be fun?

Hi there!

I’m Margaret in Minnesota, and this is my mom's-eye perspective of a kid-heavy life. I love the Lord; I take lots of photos; and I always try to tell it like it is, from sex to depression and everything in between! I hope you enjoy your time here. ♄
