My gosh, here it is yet another week nearly past us and the future still beyond our reach, but not our imagination!

I will likely have to check back in later this evening as it is only minutes before I have to leave to pick the kids up for our weekly trip to the greater metropolitan area of Denver...

It's all good though... Today we woke up to early morning snow fall that of course was melting nearly as quickly as it could fall. In all, the ground is dampened and I am so thankful as we have been so terribly dry in our region once more this winter.

I'm quite sure the farmers alike are praying for those spring showers or downpours as the case may be for the amount of moisture it would take to make up for the amount that we have yet to receive. Reminds me of a dear neighboring friend/farmer who once said "I think I might have done things a mite bit different, but I suppose God has his reasons."

It truly made me laugh to hear this God fearing man say this in his laid back tone of bewilderment in the weather patterns that had befallen us so many seasons before. He was right though. We're generally pretty sure we would do a better job in the bigger picture, yet we generally come to understand or at least try to understand what the greater value in God's plan truly is.

So it goes, today is the day of gray, over cast skies and I can rejoice in it, no doubt along with many others!

Chad is on his way to check out a job possibilty today. The one he received last Friday he was awarded the job, but the county now may take a different action for the land owner which will alter the plan after all. I know he was feeling a bit discouraged but today he seemed to be renewed in his optimism. It's so hard starting a new business, but I can only trust that with his solid effort put forth and his sincere effort to visualize it as achieved he will make it.

I appreciate any help in the visualization category that you can offer - sending your good thoughts our direction for "The Big House on the Hill" as well as for his start up business to take off and not slow down... I am going to add a picture of "The Big House on the Hill" for you all to see and help visualize with us!

You're all awesome!
Love,
Sherry
