This is the beautiful scene we awoke to on Friday morning. We weren't expecting a big snow, but God surprised us with his handiwork. Clint took this picture from our deck, looking across to the mountains. There was also a light fog in the air, so the entire area looked like a mystical wonderland. But, then... of course, it was off to work, and the "mystical" gave way to reality.
All the children at school were disappointed that we didn't have a snow day, but as the day developed and the temperature warmed up to almost 40 degrees, we enjoyed the day at school. It was especially fun for me as my school celebrated another "Guthrie Day," when everyone in the school dons the Orioles tee-shirt with the name Guthrie on back. (I am being so spoiled this year.) The children have been working on rewriting the words to long-time familiar songs using instruments and rhythm. The words were all about me, including some of my favorite expressions... such as "doing our best every day and every way" and "scrumptious golden corn." And included some details about my life outside of school, including my Subaru, Harry the dog, born in Texas, and travel around the world. We held a whole school assembly, and each grade from kindergarten through fifth grade performed a song. Clint was there, and enjoyed the little ones as well. As soon as I have some photos to share I'll post them.
