Fireman's Prayer

When I am called to duty, God,
Whenever flames may rage;
Give me strength to save some life,
Whatever be its age.

Help me embrace a little child
Before it is too late
Or save an older person
From the horror of that fate.

Enable me to be alert
And hear the weakest shout,
And quickly and efficiently
To put the fire out.

I want to fill my calling
And to give the best in me
To guard my every neighbor
And protect his property.

And if, according to my fate,
I am to lose my life,
Please bless with your protecting
My children and my wife.

Flowers

Around our yard random flowers, that are left over from the previous owners, pop up in the spring. I took a few pictures and also one of our apple tree that I love!

Cabelas

Here are a few pictures of the Cabelas store down in Lacey. We went there back in November when they had their Grand Opening. It was very crowded! Hopefully it won't be so crowded next weekend when I plan to go down there with Roy for our Anniversary.

Weather



Today it hailed! I couldn't resist going out and taking pictures of it. They were big, too! Check out the one I'm holding. The weather is so unpredictable around here! One day it's sunny, the next it's hailing!


Walking



I've been walking everyday (weather permitting) for the past couple of weeks. This is Gracie stylin' in her stroller! She loves going on walks with me! I would too if I had the luxury of chillin' in the stroller.

Skiing






Roy goes skiing or snowboarding every other Saturday during ski season. He goes back country so the views he sees are incredible. He got some sun this past Saturday. Here are a few pictures that he has taken this season.

My Mom's Birthday











We all went out for my mom's birthday April 1st. Yes, that's right, my mom's birthday is on April Fool's Day! We went to the Nuthouse for dinner. Gracie used her knife to get the peanuts open, it was cute to watch. My nephew Trey was having fun licking the remaining butter from its cup.
