I'm ba-ack. Happy Happenings Post

Hello - for the second time in a 7 day period.  :()
Thank God (and I am not swearing here)  I finally feel a bit more chipper again!
(helps the hubby is home - yay)
So for those who endured the blah's lately - thanks, and this post is dedicated to you. :)
Happy Happenings:
* Dan is back from his recruiting trip to Iowa State University (Go Cyclones!). 
* Praise God, Dan's Dad comes home from the hospital today!
* Did anyone else watch Shaun White's Gold medal Snowboarding run last night?
      It was excellent.  Very fun to watch.
      Funny side note:  Papa and I were watching the competition and one of the riders wobbled in the air.
       We both thought it was a cool trick.  We later learned it was called the "kickin chicken" - and not
       a trick - but lack of control.  :)  Good thing we weren't judging :)

* Last night we went to church for Ash Wednesday.  Good reminder of our spiritual debt and our need for a Savior.  (sets us up for Easter....)  Anyway, the Happy thought was a memory from last year at Ash Wednesday service.   When it came time for the impartation of the ashes, Dan, myself, and our 2 little girls went up.  Our 6 year old son stayed sitting by himself - not wanting to go up.  We didn't force the issue.
When we got home, the girls and I washed off our foreheads.  My son noticed our clean foreheads and exclaimed, "It washes OFF!?!".  He hadn't wanted ashes on his head because he thought it was permanent!  :)

Ok.  Better go make lunch for the kiddos.  Have a great day.
Britt :)
