Making my way through the ups and downs of life, holding fast to my favorite Bible verse: "For we walk by faith, not by sight." ~2 Corinthians 5:7.
I began blogging in earnest at Yahoo360 on October 24, 2005. (briefly using LiveJournal and blog-city prior to that) In June 2008 I moved to Blogger. I'm now at WordPress where I hope to remain.
Our little community has a nice "Municipal Auditorium".... a great venue for concerts and other programs. Other than the regional symphony, a couple of dance recitals, and a few random events, it rarely gets used. We aren't exactly a tour stop for big-name groups. Occasionally we have a rare treat and last night was one of those times. Mercy Me, a popular Contemporary Christian band, came to our town and put on a fantastic show for more than 1800 fans. They performed many of their more popular hits including the clip I've included here. In addition, they shared a song from their next album due to be released in May along with the background for the album's theme. It was a wonderful evening that flew by all too quickly. Local band Two Empty Chairs opened for them and gave a great perfomance as well.
The afternoon and evening brought something else to our area that we don't see often: Snow! It began falling mid-afternoon and gently snowed all evening. We awoke to a beautiful layer of white on everything except for the roads and sidewalks. That's what made it extra lovely in my opinion.... enough snow to look pretty, but not interfere with travel! We got about 2.25 inches at our house. It's already melting, but it was nice while it lasted.
A beautiful song and great snow pics, Kelly. Amazingly, got the snow, too, and lots of it! I woke up to a Winter Wonderland. It's so peacefully quiet and magic. I love it. Blessings!
That makes 3 of us! Mine started yesterday and is still a beautiful snowscape....expect for all the signs of snowball fights, forts, etc. that my boys along with all the neighborhood kids have been engaging in all day.
Glad you got to see the concert, Sis, and had no weather-related driving issues!n
Marion, they just said on the news that every state but Hawaii has snow right now. Amazing!

I am going to see Mercy Me in Erie next Sunday, the 21st. We're going with another couple, and I'm awfully excited to see them.
Marion, I hope you'll post some pictures of your snow. Not something you see often, either!
So glad you had a nice snow diversion of your own, Sis.
Debby... I bet you're going to LOVE the Mercy Me concert!! A real worship experience. Let me know how you like it!
I know that was a great concert. I really like them.
Snow in Eldo! Beautiful shot!
