These are more pictures from our snow day in Blue Mountain.

Our Last Snow Day

Saturday morning, we woke up to find the ground covered in snow...Aaron remembered the little bit we had last month and got very excited. We could not get him dressed fast enough! We had a little over 3 inches. Just enough to play but it was wonderful that it was gone the next day. Aaron had so much fun playing but decided that his mittens were just getting in the way, so...he took them off. He would not let me put them back on and I just let him play without them. You can tell by his expression in the pictures that he was cold. We kept trying to to him in to warm up, but he was not having that.

On another note, my grandmother passed away on Sunday night at about 10:00. It was such a sweet time. She went very peacefully. Family was surrounding her. Thank you so much for all of your prayers for us. We really felt the presence of the Lord during the whole week at the hospital and as we are approaching the visitation tonight and funeral tomorrow, we are all in such good spirits knowing that she is with the Father. Her body will be buried on top of Lookout Mountain where she and my granddaddy lived for some time. Please pray for traveling safety as we have friends and family coming from all over the country.

My Bertha Lou

For those of you who have not heard me speak of my grandmother (Grahmuh a.k.a Bertha, Inelle, Inella Bella....) She lives in Tupelo, MS in a retirement community. In the last few years, she and my granddaddy have had to adjust to living separately due to her onset of alzheimers. It has been a long road....they've been married over 60 years. Her mental function is not what it has always been, but she still recognizes family and close friends, etc.

Last weekend, she fell going into the hallway of her building. She has a nasty bruise on her forehead and other complications have developed. Long story short, she's not doing well at all and is in the hospital there in Tupelo. The doctors are very cautious in deciding what to do for her. They told my mom and her brothers to call the family to come. We're just waiting now... for what, I'm sad thinking about. It's hard to say goodbye to one of my best friends. The tests from this morning show that she has had a heart attack since being in the hospital. Things don't look good, but I know that God is in control of the situation. I feel such a peace, however, about the whole thing. Grahmuh is a believer and will soon be in the arms of our Lord. I wish I could see her face when she gets there! Please keep my family in your prayers as we go through this difficult time. (Especially my mom and granddaddy) Thank you in advance. Love, Holly
