of warmer days. We're in the middle of another GREAT snow storm. The snow is gently falling outside. We may be up to 10+ inches by now with more to come. It is quite cold out there with a low of below zero expected tonight. As I was cleaning up some videos on the computer, I found these gems. It really made me long for warmer days and green grass.
Sandy was working in the front yard with Matt and Emery last fall. But eventually they snuck out to the back yard to do this unbeknownst to her! Don't you love Matt's hat / goggles look?
This was their ultimate plan. If you can't understand her, Emery says at the end, "That is hilarious now Mr. Matt! General!"
On a separate note, I read Matthew 16 tonight to the boys and girl. In one section of the chapter, Jesus preaches for all to deny themselves, take up their cross and follow Him. Whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but he who loses his life for Christ's sake will find it.
I explained the Gospel through that verse and gave an impassioned plea to put faith in Christ for their sins. Matt and Emery both have been talking a lot about becoming Christians and asking for clarification in a lot of Gospel matters. They were both looking at me in seemingly deep thought when Matt asked:
Matt: Dad?
Me: Yes? (can you hear the hope in my voice?)
Matt: How old do you have to be to grow a beard? Can you grow one even though you are a kid or do you have to be old like Cancun (his uncle)?
Deep, theological questions tend to plague our family Bible times. :)
