Snowy Day...

The other day we got some snow.

Now, I don't think I'm quite ready for the ground to be covered yet,

but it did look pretty while it was falling!

I decided to go and fly a kite in it.

That was something I had never did before (flying it in the snow)

It was fun!

Rachel, being the good twinly that she is, came out to "help"As you can see, she was a very good "helper" ;)
And Crystal of course came to take the pictures...

I don't know if this one turned out how she wanted it to,

I think it looks like we're getting a plague of locusts or something.

The kite was VERY persnickety.

I tried, and tried to get it to fly...

It took quite a while to finally get the hang of it.

It was a glider kind of a thing and I'm not used to that kind.

(or at least that's what I'm claiming)

FINALLY! Sweet success and victory!

Marvelous, Glorious, triumph!

(over a cloth stretched between plastic sticks!!!)

Once I got it in the air, and figured out how to keep it up,

I enjoyed myself.

A little cold, but lots of fun!
I stayed out for a while, but once the sun started to set

it got too cold.

Thank you Lord for the beauty of life itself.

You never cease to amaze me.
