A Great Weekend in Girard

Jeff and I spent the weekend with our Moms in the Pittsburg/Girard Kansas area. Saturday, we got a very pleasant surprise - a beautiful snow event!! Probably the prettiest snow since I was a kid. At times, the flakes were quarter-sized!! It snowed for 4 hours straight. So, so pretty - those of you who know me well -- know I am a 55 yr. old big kid at heart when it comes to snow. Here are a few pictures - but they don't do justice to the beauty of it!
I had to have a couple of cups of snow to munch on.............
And then Mom fixed my favorite.........snow ice cream - yum, yum!!
And then the best thing -- Sunday morning, the sun was shining brightly, the roads were clear and we had a great day at Mt. Olive Baptist Church (the church I grew up in) as Jeff began a revival on End Times..........

I had to come on home Sunday afternoon to work a few days - but will return in time for the Wednesday evening final service. Thursday, Mom, Jeff & I, Kaye & Rob, and Bev & Don are flying to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania for a mini vacation to celebrate Mom's 80th birthday! Will post all about it when we get home.

One more picture.........this is a big ole' tree in Mom's backyard, that our cousin, Lloyd nailed a face too - I took it from inside, so it's kinda hard to see the eyes, nose and mouth! :-)
