It snowed in GA!!!!!



It snowed on Thursday night and we woke up to find the ground mostly white!! I never thought I'd be so glad to see snow, but I was!! So much infact that as soon as I got out of bed and got dressed, I grabbed my camera and ran out side for a few quick pictures before breakfast!
I also went out later in the day to snap a few more when it was nicer and the sun was shining.. (:
[the ones below are the "later in the day" pictures.]


Our beautiful holly bush!

Surrender

-BARLOWGIRL

My hands hold safly to my dreams
Clutching tightly not one has fallen
So many years I've shaped each one
Reflecting my heart showing who I am
Now you're asking me to show
What I'm holding oh so tightly
Can't open my hands can't let go
Does it matter?
Should I show you?
Can't you let me go?

Surrender, surrender you whisper gently
You say I will be free
I know but can't you see?
My dreams are me. My dreams are me

You say you have a plan for me
And that you want the best for my life
Told me the world had yet to see
What you can do with one
That's committed to Your calling
I know of course what I should do
That I can't hold these dreams forever
If I give them now to You
Will You take them away forever?
Or can I dream again?

what winter looks like in NY...

A few of my favorite pictures of snow in NY from last year....


The beautiful evergreen at the corner of our old house that was appoximately 100 years old! It looked extra droopy with the wait of the snow/ice.

Our old barn.... Isn't it a beauty?? (:

NOTE:: all the pictures on this post were taken with my little point-and-shoot camera except for this last picture... Jus goes to prove that you don't have to have an SLR to take good pictures.. (:
And another thing, these pictures are 100% UNedited!!(with the exception of the last one)

What Faith Can Do~

BY:KUTLESS

Everybody falls sometimes
Gotta find the strength to rise
From the ashes and make a new beginning
Anyone can feel the ache
You think it’s more than you can take
But you are stronger, stronger than you know
Don’t you give up now
The sun will soon be shining
You gotta face the clouds
To find the silver lining

I’ve seen dreams that move the mountains
Hope that doesn’t ever end
Even when the sky is falling
And I’ve seen miracles just happen
Silent prayers get answered
Broken hearts become brand new
That’s what faith can do

It doesn’t matter what you’ve heard
Impossible is not a word
It’s just a reason for someone not to try
Everybody’s scared to death
When they decide to take that step
Out on the water
It’ll be alright
Life is so much more
Than what your eyes are seeing
You will find your way
If you keep believing

I’ve seen dreams that move the mountains
Hope that doesn’t ever end
Even when the sky is falling
And I’ve seen miracles just happen
Silent prayers get answered
Broken hearts become brand new
That’s what faith can do

Overcome the odds
You don't have a chance
(That’s what faith can do)
When the world says you can’t
It’ll tell you that you can!

I’ve seen dreams that move the mountains
Hope that doesn’t ever end
Even when the sky is falling
And I’ve seen miracles just happen
Silent prayers get answered
Broken hearts become brand new
That’s what faith can do
That's what faith can do!
Even if you fall sometimes
You will have the strength to rise


--Keep pressing on through the hard times "even when the sky is falling".
Having faith in Jesus Christ is essential for us to be able to pull through difficult times and still "have the strength to rise".
Even if "the world says you can't", "you don't have a chance", put your faith in Him! He will "tell you that you can!"
