Whispers White

"The snow comes down in whispers white..."

Not so much 'whispers', more like shouts & screams. It is still beautiful & mesmerizing, despite the force of the storm. I am one of those people that likes one really good snow per Winter, then after that I am ready for Spring. If I am recalling right this is our 3rd snow, & it's a doozy. Everyone in the Yocum/(Parkin) household was home from work today & seems like tomorrow will tell the same story. Well, except for me. I have to work...

Rejoice! We have done our taxes. And it looks like the Lord blessed us with exactly the right amount of money. I would have gladly taken more & put it to good use, but I did pray for just enough to get us by. And that's what He did. So, we could possibly be moving into our own place come March 1st. We have found a little house in Eudora, Kansas that looks perfect from the outside. We actually have not seen the inside yet because of the previous renters circumstances, but I have a good feeling.

Isn't it as cute as a button? Underneath all that snow are some flowerbeds & a gravel driveway. It has a huge front yard & a decently sized backyard, perfect for little Shigo. I am excited to mow. I think I've lost my mind! Haha. It was two bedrooms, one bath, an "unusually" large sized living room, & maybe a basement. We have heard conflicting reports. I hope it does though, so Levi can have a 'splicing symposium' of his own :-) We'll see what God's plans are. They seem to constantly be different then ours!

Well, Levi might be heading to Saint Louis, Missouri with his tree company to help clean up after the snow/ice storm. I guess the weather that way was worse then ours. He could be gone one to two weeks. I will miss him very much, but you can't turn down a blessing. We shall see!

Hope everybody is keeping safe & warm!
