You have GOT to be kidding me.

I finally decide to get back to my blog and it appears that my computer had other plans because it quit on me. Quit. Kaput. Done. Finitio.

Now I am without my camera AND computer. My two favorite toys - my only link outside of Mommyhood - are gone. I'm trying to handle it like a big girl and not cry ( advice I give Addison); but I'll have u know: I am screaming on the inside.

Just as I had been making plans for our Christmas cards . . . Bummer!

. . . And Thank You For My Snow

Referencing the first mountain top snow of the season, Addison closed out her nightly prayer with, ". . . and thank you for MY snow."

A few weeks later when the snow finally made it's way down the mountain to the ground Addison exclaimed, "It's Christmas!"

To say Addison has been excited about the snow is an understatement.


Addison got to spend some time playing in the snow during our first big storm.


Her cheeks were very red after coming in from the snow. This picture doesn't exactly capture how red they were; but you get the idea.


There were tears when it was time to go back inside. Poor lil girl. But I promised we'd go back out very soon. And as I type this we are in the middle of another storm. Guess it's almost time to go back out and play!

Change of Plans

Just the thought of getting caught up on the blog has been overwhelming. So rather than spending the next two months on the past I'm just gonna start with current postings. I'll throw in a few "flashbacks" here and there.

It's been a strange few months and ever since our cameras were stolen, it's been hard to capture moments in the way I prefer.

I've really missed chronicling Our Dream. Thanks to all who've checked-in wondering when I was gonna start back up.
