Catch Up Time

I sooo have to catch up! It's been a Crazy couple of months. I really didn't think any of which was blog worthy. I have some pictures here of the ice/snow storm we had that put us out of power again for four days, The ice was so thick on the trees the next couple days after the ice glistened in the sunlight and EVERYTHING sparkled, it was the beautiful thing I had ever seen. Pictures don't do it justice at all.
We again had the opportunity in the midst of disaster to take note in how prepared we were. It felt so good to not have to fear. Jackson is fine as long as he has his blankie, his mommie, and his thumb. We did lots of coloring Yoga in the mornings to keep us warm and the blood flowing! I love having a generator! Hudling together by the fire
I have been super busy holding the fort down while Aaron has had to put in more hours than usual. And those of you that know him know that that the "usual" is already a typical 13 hour day. Like I said I had figured it not blog worthy, but at the same time I have really learned a lot these last 6 months. I have had my testimony strengthened and Aaron and I couldnt be any closer through this. I was talking to my sister about it and we said how funny it is we are so happy and have peace and hope during these times of trial. It's the blessings of the gospel for sure!

I love seeing these photos, even though you had to go through days of no power the kids will always remember it...it looked like they were having fun! I love BraeLynn's haircut!
