COOKIES! COOKIES FOR SALE!!!


We got the order form to start selling Girl Scout cookies @ the meeting this past week!


Why do Girl Scout cookies have to go on sale right after everyone has made their New Year's resolutions?? Guess those cookies overpower those resolutions though--they've been doing cookie sales for 80 years.

Terrible tornadoes came through this afternoon & evening. We spent a good 30 minutes or so in our little tornado shelter! I hate getting in there, but am so thankful we have it.


Our little comedian, Holt, said, "We've been down here 5 days." We turned to look & saw that he was making hash marks with his finger on the wall of the cellar!

After he got a laugh out of us, he made 5 more & said we'd been there for 10 days. I love that crazy kid! We've been reminded how much we need to find a good battery-operated fan for the cellar. It gets a little warm in there! Between the humidity & all of our hot air, it created the moisture on the walls that Holt could make marks with. Thankfully, we had a little battery-operated fan of Abi's. It was tiny, but at least it was moving air.

Our little scaredy cat, Ojoe did awesome! And I am especially grateful that we received no damage & were able to climb out of our shelter & back into the comforts of home. What a blessing. Many were not that fortunate.

Saying prayers of thanks tonight...
