The famous Midwestern wind can always bring a dash of patriotism to a chilly winter stroll as was the case on this blessed, clear afternoon.
Broad Stripes and Bright Stars
Winter
Frosty Blooms
Even while we wait for Spring to leak color back into the world there is still beauty to be found in God’s frozen creation. Tiny miracles are always underfoot.
Winter Woolens
Amid the grey Midwestern winter, baby girl and I take every opportunity to soak up the sunshine and God’s blessings, after cozying up in our favorite handknits of course.
Dashing Through the Snow
Although we aren’t able to make it to Colorado for Christmas this year I’ll always remember fondly chilly days like these. Even if we did return to the house looking like the abominable snowman with ice sickles dripping from our hats, there’s nothing like a romp through the winter wilderness to set the world right again. I feel so blessed to have grown up in a place where hiking truly is an all seasons sport. Snow, rain or shine, with the proper footwear, there’s nothing to stop you from having a little adventure.
Frosty Winter Days
Although it’s been a generally mild Indiana winter with more rain than snow, our prayers were answered with a frozen, white Christmas.
Merry Christmas
The Christmas season has begun! I pray that everyone is home, surrounded by family and friends as we celebrate the birth of Christ. Christmas is one of my favorite seasons of the whole year. It’s a season of love and giving and tradition. During the darkest part of the year, it’s a time of light and music and good cheer. May your Christmas be joyous and blessed!
Blessed in the Midwest
