Sunday Slush!

What a wonderfully warm winter day! We enjoyed mid 40 temperatures, but the snow has turned to slush. My poor little snowman is turning into a big drippy puddle!
Zach and I enjoyed our trip to Iowa City yesterday. In addition to having our delicious treat at the Cold Stone (NOT Stone Cold, as I said previously) Creamery, we took in the Old Capitol Museum. Zach enjoyed participating in the activities they were having for the young visitors. He learned to write with a quill, did a treasure hunt throughout the building looking for interesting facts, for which he received a prize, and when we got back home, Dennis took him sledding.
Today we visited the Victory Faith Church in Ft. Madison, where Lynn regularly attends. We really enjoyed the service, and saw quite a number of acquaintances who also attend. Jacob goes to the youth program called U-Turn on Wednesday evenings. He has been involved there for a couple years and really likes it. If you can get the 89.9 radio station, you can hear the pastor speak on Friday afternoons, around 4 o'clock I think. He's really very good!
Tomorrow, it's back to the bus! Kathy, Gail, Wyatt and I are planning to make a quick shopping run to Coralville. I have another coupon for a FREE Cold Stone Creamery concoction!

Man...I REALLY hope that Santa brings me a digital camera!! I just left him a verbal hint. It went something like "Susie sure uses her digital camera a lot..look at all these pictures from this weekend!!!!" I didn't even hear a grunt...so I'm sure it went out the other ear. OR let's hope that his brain is digesting that in a nice long thought process! HA>..lol
