Baby, it's cold outside...

It's not as bad as some parts of the country, but this is very cold for us!

Epiphany

I went to the noon Feast of the Epiphany service today. Nothing like five verses of "We Three Kings of Orient Are" to put you in the mood.

Studying Hard

Rachel is working on alphabetizing her spelling list. She's been really good about coming home and getting to work.

Red potatoes

Rachel has been dying to have red potatoes for some unknown reason, so tonight I fixed pot roast, salad and boiled red potates with butter.

We Three Kings...

Today is the 2nd Sunday after Christmas, and January 6 is the Feast of the Epiphany when we celebrate the arrival of the three kings. During the offeratory this morning, the three kings brought their gifts.

More Scrabble

Playing Scrabble with Rachel's new board she bought with Christmas money at Target.

She's the scorekeeper.

Studying the board intently.

All Scrabbled Out

Rachel and I were playing Scrabble on the computer -- she on Paul's computer and me on mine. She wore herself out running in to ask me to help her find a word.
