ICEtin - Not Austin

While I was enjoying a trip to Maryland - where it was warm enough to go without a coat...it was SNOWING in Austin! So much so that it took me two extra days to get home. I knew I was taking a chance on going to Maryland in January...it usually snows there in Jan/Feb....but Who ever thought I would get snowed OUT of Texas?

Min made sure to capture these amazing scenes for me so I wouldn't miss out. Who knows when we'll ever see snow on our house again.

So much for global warming!

Our house with snow on it!

Our poor little pansies encased in ice.

Little "Snowphie" - 'Hello? I thought we were done with this cold stuff on the ground!'

Henry Honda covered in snow - he's used to this in Colorado, but TEXAS??? Not so much.

The Baby Belly

By popular demand...here is a picture of "the belly" - I'll add more soon.

Baby Shower

Sweet friends hosted a baby shower for me over the weekend. It was precious to have my new friends in Austin gathered together to celebrate the upcoming birth of my little boy. It was extra special because my mom was able to attend while she was visiting from Florida.

The food was yummy and my sweet friend Andrea made the Martha-esqe cake which was out of this world delish! Even better was the fellowship and time of praying for the baby and his arrival.

It is so good to be here and I'm so thankful for the blessing of our baby and great girlfriends!
