We spent Thanksgiving with my parents, and this is what we woke up to the day before Thanksgiving...so beautiful. It's no wonder I love snow and winter so much. These are the views I had when I was growing up! The pine trees go all the way around the yard.
We enjoyed watching the birds in the feeder. The squirrels climbed in there too. :-)
We had a very nice visit with family and friends. The week went by too quickly!

Just a little idea to pass along...
We
have the Gideons come to our school every year. Sadly, they've told us
that now they're only allowed in about 5% of the public schools in
America. Our students receive these little New Testaments every year.
They've been encouraged to give any extras to friends who may not have
the opportunity to receive one. Also, Katie's class made up some care
packages to give out to the homeless, making sure to include a New
Testament along with water, snacks, a toothbrush, etc.
If you don't have any extra Bibles lying around, I think tracts would work well too. We should always be looking for opportunities to share the Gospel!
So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not
return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it
shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it. ~Isaiah 55:11
Take care,
