I know, I know! A reoccurring theme here on the Fargo Favorites this Winter. But we are finally all feeling better. We're still hacking up a lung here and there but feeling tons better!
2. Dirty Snow
A common Fargo site in the Spring. It's very ugly for sure but it means the stinkin' stuff is finally melting a bit. Yeah! I'll take dirty snow any day these days. (That's sad, I know but true!! We are so ready to see the sidewalks and maybe even a bit of grass.)3. Spring Flowers
My sweet Visiting Teacher brought by a life-saving gift this week. Something I may kill unfortunately. (No one said I had a green thumb, people) A little green plant in a pretty purple vase. Within 2 days, color started to emerge from it's roots. And look at it now- gorgeous! There is LIFE still growing here! Inside my home no less! I love it! I will enjoy it as long as I possibly can! Thanks for the little JOY!4. Family Scripture Study
Each night, our family gathers together to read the word of God from the scriptures. Right now we are reading from 3rd Nephi in the Book of Mormon and all about Christ's visit to the American Continent after His death. It's been neat to hear the things He taught them. We truly are blessed to have another Testament of Christ in these last days. Maybe unfortunately (I can't for sure tell), the Seamons' Family Scripture study is not always known for it's quiet and serene setting. It can be loud and chaotic and sometimes a time to wonder if it's really worth doing it at all. But despite the distraction and giggles and goofing around sometimes, I think it's benefits outweigh everything. Climbing on Dad's back and hearing the Word of God everyday- What could be better than that???
5. Good Neighbors
Neighbor's is a relative term in Fargo {within a 10 minute drive is considered a neighbor} but so grateful for those near by in times of need. Our truck broke down in Casselton this week. Thanks to the Larsen's allowing us to borrow their truck, Brett & I were able to tow the beast back to our house. [I barely made it back alive, if you want to know. The alternator is out so there were no brakes and no power steering and no heater. Don't worry about me though-- it was only -15 degrees and a 20 long minute, 60 MPH drive. Can anyone say- human Popsicle???] Then, the other Ryan spent a good chunk of his 1st day back in 2 weeks, helping Brett fix it. Thanks McPhersons- we owe your family BIG time! Thank heavens for good neighbors!
