Compartment Five Snow Days

Well as March 1st came into the picture we found ourselves looking at eight inches of snow at our home in MD. I started laughing because most places will close due to the snow. I grew up in Oregon where snow is every winter, we do not close down until we can no longer drive in the snow ( like up to our knees or more ).


Some people down right freak out over the mention of snow falling while others like myself look at it as a change of pace considering Christmas was a balmy 72 degrees this last year.


My only wish was to have some grandkids around to make a snowman with or to have a snow ball fight. I hope one day that can be a reality. In the mean time here is what our house looks like today.

Compartment Four Joshua's Birthday Party

I know it's been a while since we updated this site. Some things just got a little out of control. But hopeful we are back on track again and moving this train at a better pace.


We drove down the VA to our oldest grandson's birthday party. We had a blast, first we got to take the boys shopping, I had forgotten at that age they want everything they see, it brought back a lot of memories.


Back at the house we had the honor of meeting some very nice new people and their childern. We had cake ( a lovely creation by Nicole ) and a lot of fun watching the kids play games.


After the other guest had left, the Nerf Guns were brought out for some additional fun with the boys.
