Here in the Beehive

It's been awhile

Well the title says it all! We are about to start the Round of 16 USA game in the World Cup. I haven't missed a game yet! Tonight, I will go to mass in the neighborhood and then head to the beach with my best friend until July 3rd! I'm so excited! Though I haven't been posting on this blog in the meantime I haven't been Facebook-ing, blogging at Photography by Mary Elizabeth, watching the World Cup, taking pictures, hanging out with friends, and playing with my siblings. I hope to start picking up posting again! Love to you all!

Snow!

Hi!

Sorry for the lack of posts! D: I've been hoping and hoping to get back onto typepad and blog. Anyways, to get back into a groove. Today (and yesterday) we got a total of about 32" of snow! That is an amazing amount for us Virginians! It's really pretty powder snow. It's so nice! Anyways, taking picks for the superbowl! Colts or Saints? Guess who's going to win and what the score will be! Lets see who can get the closest! Good luck! My guess is Colts win 42-38! :D well for now i leave you with some of my photography!

Dear Blog Friends,

It's Christmastime again. Yesterday was the joyful feast of Christmas the day Christ our Savior was born. I love all of the feasts of December, The Immaculate Conception, St. Nicholas, Christmas, and St. Stephen (today) to name a few.

Sadly, you can now see the hydrated and very green grass in the front yard, our winter wonderland is melting away, and though there is a chance that there will be more snow in our near future I feel like I can almost see the Spring approaching. But much at the same time it feels like Winter still, the days are gray, but not bad gray, a good almost sparkling gray. The tree in the front yard as finally let go of it's leaves. You don't see many birds or any animals of any kind. It's a peaceful, quiet, Wii playing kind of day. The newly opened Wii Sports Resort is in the Wii, behind me I can see a virtual basketball game going on. The whistling wind blows through the bare branches of the tree outside and the ice around the soccer goals in the backyard is melting away. And here I sit in the middle of chicken pot pies cooking and Nicholas winning a basketball game, waiting for Spring to arrive.

Snow!

 Oh my gosh! We have 14" of snow! We NEVER get this much snow! Almost as much as you Leah! It's great!

Hello!

I only have a few minutes to post. Just wanted to drop in and say hello! Well I'm off to basketball practice. TTFN!

Update on Maria

Her blog name is Galadreil

Please Pray

For 12-year-old Maria that has a brain tumor in the middle of her head. She needs our prayers that everything will go smoothly and she will be healthy after brain surgery today. Also pray for her 9 siblings and parents.

I'm Sorry

I'm so sorry I haven't posted! Well later I have my first basketball game, and right now it's SNOWING!!!! Yep! It's awesome! It's snowing a lot and we will probably have like 4" of snow once it's finished, that's a lot for us (yes Leah I said a lot for us:-). Well TTYL!
