2014

This sure has been a harsh winter here in the United States.  It seems like the snow was everywhere.  Even here in Georgia. 

 It was amazing how Atlanta closed down.  I couldn't believe it.  I think we had like 4 - 6 inches where we live.  Thank goodness I didn't have to drive in it.

Spring is very welcome around here.  The trees are blooming, grass is turning green,

birds are singing.  Its great.  I can't wait for warmer weather.

Playing catch up

It seems that I'm not very good at this blogging thing.  I thought I would do a little catching up. 

Got to go see my mom in California in June 2010.  Was there for a about a month and loved every bit of it.  Was able to do the whole beach thing.  Yay!!  I sure do miss me some beach.  Being in Georgia, the beach is hours away opposed to being only 30 minutes where I grew up.  Big difference.  Here is a page I was able to scrap.  I used a kit by Noshay called Colonial and an element out of Janettdesing, kit called Sea.  Not bad for a first page huh?  That's me, my mom and her boyfriend waving.  It was sooo great being at the beach.

 

In September 2010 we had the awesomeness of moving.  Not.  The last thing to be unpacked was the motorcycle.  Here is picture of the bike being lifted out of the bus.

We did get rid of the bike in the summer of 2011 though.  Hubby thought a boat would be better for us.  Don't know what he was thinking.  Went out a few times on the lake.  Nothing like the wind hitting your face.



Oh before I go, here are pictures of the snow we had at the beginning of the year 2011.  This one is a view of the house.

And the one below is me turning around and taking a view up to the street.   Pretty awesome isn't it?  After we got the car out of the driveway, we parked it up on the street.  Let me tell ya, the walk up this driveway is not an easy one, especially in the snow.  LOL!!  Talk about a work out.

Well, that's all I have for now.   Sorry this post was so long, but you know how us women can get sometimes when we haven't been with friends in a while.

Will blog some more in a few days.

Bye for now.

It's here !!!!!

The snow they said we were to have earlier finally arrived.  Atlanta is getting 3" per hour right now.  We here in Gainesville just started seeing the snow.  YEAH!  I can't wait till tomorrow morning.  I'll post pics sometime tomorrow.  If any of you are in this storm, be careful out there. 

Happy New Year

I don't know about ya'll, but I had a great Christmas.  It started snowing.  I actually got pictures this time.
                
    
This is the first time in about 130 years that Atlanta got a sizeable amount of snow on Christmas Day.  It was so pretty outside.

On another note, I hope you have a
 Happy and Safe New Year. 

Wind in my face...

Today, my wonderful husband and I got to go out on the open highway with some friends of ours, for a motorcycle ride.  The weather here in the North Georgia Mountains was absolutely gorgeous today.  Such a great day for a ride.  Went up to Helen and through the mountains.  I gotta tell ya, it was great having the wind in my face.  Being able to just go.  It was great.  At one point, we stopped at one of the overlooks and looked upon the vastness of God's great wonder.  You could see for miles.  It was beautiful.  Just beautiful.

On another note, sad news.  I won't be able to post any pictures of the snow we had this year.  I was trying to finalize my disk in my camera and you guessed it.  I hit the wrong button and then there was none.  I was so upset at myself.  I lost pictures not only of the snow, but about 400 pictures in all.  I do know one thing, I won't be doing that again real soon. 

SNOW

We have snow.  I'm so excited!  Though it's only a few inches, it's absolutely beautiful outside.  I'll be posting some pics in the next couple of days.
