ONE LITTLE WORD 2016: Grow with Patience

This year, Tony and I each picked a word. 
I initially chose Faith...then changed it to Grow which seems more suiting for my year. 
Tony chose Patience....which works for his path.
I had already started working on this ampersand symbol by wood burning and coloring various elements. Tony even drew our names on the board which I embraced into the design.
And gradually the design filled up all the space.  I made sure to incorporate our OLW's for the year as well as others meaningful to us.
The final detail was adding watercolor to parts of the symbol. 
I'll let you play Search & Find for all the little symbols, drawings, and words.

SNOW DAY: Storm Jonas 2016

After taking Thursday off work, I had another nice break thanks to Storm Jonas.
SNOW DAY!!!!

Tony wasn't too happy about the weather as he needed to make his way back to Anderson, but I cheered him up with breakfast in bed: french toast, eggs, blueberries, and oj.

Since he was ill prepared for snow, I loaned him my hat and gloves AND ice scraper from Nebraska.
Cutest Snow Bunny EVER!!
Thankfully Tony made it back safely (after seeing several wrecks and sliding off the road himself)!
 
And the next day was good news as the Panthers won the NFC Championship
 
 
and
 
 
are
 
 
 
It has been so fun watching the games this season and I wish them nothing but
GOOD LUCK in San Franscisco.
