Blizzard 2010 - What I did!

Friday, February 12, 2010

For today, I originally had planned another post but after a little thinking this came to mind. It is a little departure from my regular post but one that I hope you enjoy none the less.  Just a little peak into the life of Ebony.

It's Friday and I'm so happy to report that it is no longer snowing in Northern Virginia where I reside with my family. If you haven't heard we just had the largest blizzard this area has seen in over 150+ years!  We have about 40+ inches in our front yard!  It started out last week and just stopped yesterday.  Most of my friends know that I have absolutely LOVED being snowed in with my family.  It is just what the doctor ordered. Time to pause and stop to reflect on how wonderfully blessed I am and think about what the future hold for us.  We had our niece over with us because her mom had to work and I made a week of activities, including baking cookies, making chocolate covered marshmallows, and Valentine's Day cupcakes.  So I thought I would post a few pictures of our snow and our fun activities this week.  :)

How did you spend your time snowed in?  My girls and I had a great time...AND it looks like we might be getting a little more snow on Monday! WOW!

Amy Altas - Valentine's Day Dessert Table

Wednesday, February 10, 2010

Amy Atlas is at it again!  For those of you who don't know, Amy Atlas is the QUEEN of the dessert table and such a big inspiration for me. Here is her latest creation for Better TV where she gives tips for creating your own dessert table.  What I love about this dessert table is the use of gray as an accent color.  Who would have thought it would be the perfect complimentary color.  Just beautiful and I'm sure everything was just as delicious at it looks!





Amy is always fabulous, check out her blog for all of the yummy details.
