Well, not much is going on around here. John started school Monday and is enjoy his first block. They are working with chocolate, so I'm looking forward to any projects he might bring home. :-) He is in the home stretch and I know it will pass quickly. It is going to be a busy spring for us, but I know God is faithful and we are trusting Him to provide for everything we need.

Right now, it is about 8 degrees outside with a wind chill of ????.....very cold! This little cold spell is supposed to last the rest of the week. My little Oklahoma trained mind and body are just not used to this! I'm ready for some sunny days, but probably won't get them for a while. It snowed all afternoon yesterday...my boss made the comment that it looked like we were in a snowglobe! She was right, just a nice peaceful snow until about 4:30, when the wind started to howl and drive the snow. This is of course the time when we leave work and I had to walk two blocks through this mess to get to my car! Not exactly what I would call fun, but I made it without falling or freezing, so we're good!

I have a three day weekend ahead, so we are heading to Pittsburgh to be with John's parents for the weekend. That is always fun for us. I imagine we'll be spending as much time as possible with them in the next few months. Mom and I will be working on a quilt (yea!), that she is going to make for John and I. I have given her some of my scrap fabrics and we are going to work on coordinating and trimming things up so she can get started on it this summer. I'm really excited! This will be a charm quilt (no fabric used more than once in the same position), so it will be really colorful and fun!

We'll, I've got to run.....time to get ready for work. Lots of love....
