As some of you know, the past week here in Vancouver has been wonderfully snowy and icy. I have LOVED it. And not JUST for the extra time at home, although that has been a true blessing to my heart. I needed some major time at home-time with the family- and time to catch up on stuff. And I got it! God knows our needs, amen?? But even beyond all this time at home, it is so special to be having a WHITE Christmas. For Mark and me, it's been 9 years since we've been in snow like this (since our last Christmas in Anchorage). It's been fun to watch it fall, crunch around in it, drive in it (just a teeny bit), and-for the kids-to sled and play in it. I will miss it when it melts.
I took some pictures of our school this past Saturday, and put them into a very short slideshow (posted below). They were taken before the major snow accumulation even happened. I have some photos/video of the kids to post, but I have no time right now to post them--but soon! For now, here are some photos of our school, covered under a light blanket of fluffy, soft snow.
I hope to write again soon. I have had an unusual amount of coursework to do (Educational/Child Psychology). I actually enjoy the learning, but it's been interesting trying to finish all my assignments by this Friday, with everything that's around to take me away from it. I've actually been getting up before 7 AM some mornings. ON MY VACATION! Unheard of! But it's all coming together.
Merry Christmas, my friends! Our God is with us.
And if God is with us, who can stand against us?
