Outfit from Gerogia

Thank you so very much for my new outfit Darluna Bush and Meg!!! I agree that you two could be the new and improved Missus Smarty Pants!! I will have to hire ya'll to do my shoping from now on. :) (Perhaps we can work out an arangement! :)
I will be anxiously awaiting the warmer spring weather so I can wear it and will be Stylin' and Profilin'! :) Can you tell from this picture that there is two inches of snow outside?
Thank you thank you Sam I am!! :) (Ya'll)

Burden of Relief

The Pilgrim (Christian) was relieved of his burden tonight! Below is the song that Christian sang when his burden came off.

Then Christian gave three leaps of joy, and went on singing:
"Thus far did I come laden with my sin,
Not could aught ease the grief that I was in,
Till I came hither, What a place is this!
Must here be the begining of my bliss?
Must here the burden fall from off my back?
Must here the strings that bound it to me crack?
Blest cross! bles sepulchre! best rather be
The Man that there was put to shame for me!"

Bunyan's picture of C's burden falling off is so clear. Can't you see and feel the relief that he feels when his burden is released and rolls off into the pit?

Easter Explanation

Did ya have a happy Easter? Yes, you guessed it, no Easter pictures. It seems to be the general consensus that it was a little chilly for Easter. Dad, Mama and I went to the SunRise service and the temperature was a a chipper 20 degrees! (I realized this AFTER running outside to crank up the car)After trying on my Easter outfit and not liking it, I then proceed to pull out every dress in my closet. (Yup, I didn't like any of them! And had quite a few things to put back up!) After talking to Chrisa she tells me what I should wear and then proceed to put that on and calm down somewhat. :)

Later in the day Mama mentions we did not take any pictures and would be happy to take one of me in my VT sweatshirt. (I declined the offer.) Besides it is the traditon to take it by the faithful DogWood tree that is not yet in bloom. (If the wind is softly blowing then it should be a warm wind. Did the snow kill the pollen?)

Are there things called chill fronts? There are warm fronts and cold fronts but cold fronts, to me, would classify as freezingly cold and warm fronts would be scorchingly hot. So perhaps this was a chill-front Easter.

I do hope that everyone had a Blessed Easter!!!!

Snowy Pears

Happy Easter to all!!! Here is what our Good Friday looks like! What a nice surprise with a few snow flurries! BRRR SHIVVERSS!!! Although the Asian Pear trees look nice with the snow blowing around, I'm sure it's not a good thing when it does officially become spring!

A Spring-ish Sunday

For all of those who view my blog, I do not want you to think that I am so obsessed with myself only posting pictures of me. I was telling Chrisa (Hey Darluna Bush!) about my outfit (we discuss our Sunday attire on the phone:) and she wanted to see it. Mama was nice enough to take these pictures. Also notice the very clean car that is sparking in the background! :)

Happy April! Did you notice that April first was on the first day of the week? Is everyone ready to take on the new spring-y weather? It makes me want to stay outside and clean everything in sight! God is so good to us with the changing of the seasons! Reminder of His mercy and grace to us every day!
