A fun day in the...

SNOW




The perfect packing snow to make snowballs!


She did actually get me in the leg with this one.



She was hesitant to go into the grass, so we played on the walk way and on the front deck.


 Making footprints in the snow. She loved this the most and even invited me to join her :)


Little Miss did have a good time in the snow.  Apparently, it was just enough as she started to complain about her little cold hands. It was a nice little Mommy + Daughter time, hopefully building some wonderful memories.

So how's the weather out your way?

Thirty-One - Turkey Trot 2012



This holiday season, I am running my very first Turkey Trot for my Thirty-One business! I am looking for 9 more Trotters willing to take on this challenge and be rewarded in return!

Unfortunately, due to company policy, I cannot publicly announce the details but if you are interested in learning more, please email me at theroddybride{at}gmail{dot}com. If you know someone who would be interested, please pass this along too. Just an FYI, you do not need to be local to me to be a Trotter, just willing to Trot :)

Thank you all in advance! Have a happy Thursday!

Update

The entire Roddy family from PA to NJ finally all have our power back! We got our power back Sunday night at 9ish and my brother-in-law and family got their's back Monday night.

I just want to take the time to THANK everyone involved in this whole ordeal! From my family who took us in, to my fam & friends that reached out to help us and to the utility workers who sacrificed their time away from their families to help mine! God Bless You all!!

4 days later...

Just wanted to say HELLO and let you all know we are safe with no damage to the house. Unfortunately four days later we are still without power. We are blessed though to have my amazing and selfless parents who brought my entire Roddy clan into their home even though they didn't have power too.

However, today around 6pm my parent's power was restored. It really is a blessing. I just couldn't imagine taking another icicle shower.

Well keep us in your prayers. They estimate our power to be restored by 11pm Sunday night. Here's hoping!
