Snow!

This is a picture of the apartment complex we are staying in (provided by Mark's company).  We will be living here until March while we establish ourselves in the house we have rented.  The Lord truly blessed our moving day with plenty of sunshine.  However, this morning we woke up to snow.  Light, fluffy, powdery snow!  I am sitting in our cozy apartment with a view of the hills out the living room window.  I have watched the snow slowly cover the hills with a blanket of white.

This is the view from our apartment balcony this morning before the snow plow came.  Unfortunately, I did not get to stay in my warm cozy apartment for long.  It was time to take the rental car back to the airport. We left before the snow plow came, so it was a bit slippery on the way to the interstate highway.  It was my first time actually driving in falling snow.  The airport is about a 40 mile trip from where we are living so I was nervous.  Mark drove the rental car while I followed behind in our mini van.  Eric was with me so I had good support.  We made it there and back in one piece.

My son Brandon came down ill last night with a stomach bug.  I had a few messes to clean up.  Thankfully, he is over the worst of it this evening.  Mark had something similar last Thursday, I hope Eric and I manage to escape it.
