Snow Day!

I'm sorry I haven't posted pictures in a long time, I've been slacking on the blog! This is probably going to be a really long post, sorry! Lacy and I have been busy since Steven left. We first went up to Fort Wayne to spend Christmas and New Years with my family. We had a great time, it was nice to be with loved ones over the holidays.

Since we've been back, work has been pretty slow for me. With the economy the way it is, Trane is being very conservative with their funds and is not approving money for warranty work as quickly as I'd like! :-) So instead, I've been working around the house, I painted the guest bedroom and finally put my beautiful Nebraska Quilt on the bed. My brilliant mother made it for me out of all my Husker volleyball T-shirts and jerseys...I love it!

I'm also working with a local volleyball club. Since I coach high school and so many of those girls play on the teams, I am not allowed to coach them in the off season per TN high school rules. Instead, I'm coaching a developmental team to middle school age girls (there is not a middle school vb program in Clarksville) and acting as a co-club director. It's keeping me busy. Also, my church Army Wives small group just started a new study called "The Excellent Wife," and I'm leading the study this time. I know I'm going to need some help, so please keep me in your prayers! This group has been amazing, and we're looking forward to learning how to be the best godly wives we can!

We had a HUGE snowstorm last night...yeah right....all the schools are closed around here, and we probably had a 1/8 inch accumulation! Beware of the roads! hahaa! It's such a joke! Oh well, Lacy likes it!

Steven is doing well, they are still waiting for 10th Mountain to take over their post. That was supposed to happen mid January but still no change of command. He's been on guard duty LOTS these last several weeks (boring!) and not doing a whole lot...which is a blessing to me (much safer)! Not to Steven, though, he's bored and missing home. He says he's been working out a lot and hanging out with his guys, so that's good!

An obscene amount of presents....
My gorgeous sister, Anna.
Lacy with her christmas treats.


Mom, throwing down in the kitchen! She brought back the French Onion Soup tradition this year! So delicious!

Where is Steven???

I really want to go play outside...

Christmas Eve at the DeCamps...the new family tradition. So fun!
All of the Quance first cousins and their families. This is the first time we've all been together in years!
The guestroom. Please come visit...we have a room for you!
Our baby...



She really wants to go play in the snow!


I put new pictures on the mantle...Steven wanted to see them...here you go baby, what do you think?

Here's our HUGE snow accumulation! 1/8th an inch and all schools are closed!
