Win-de-jizer

....on our way to church this morning - this was the scene out the front windshield of our van:


Total whiteout conditions. Good thing I knew the road - as I gaged the side from the shadowy images of an occaisional passing mailbox....

What in the world are we doing out in this?! -7 windchill - snow flying and blowing with such ferocity that we couldn't see ten feet in front of the van...It took me 40 minutes to drive six miles.

"Mommy, there's a win-de-jizer."
"What?! is a windejizer?"
"It's a windejizer."
"Olivia, 'windejizer' isn't a word - I have no idea what you're saying."
"IT IS TO A WORD!!! MRS. REDFOOT SAID IT'S A WINDEJIZER!!"
....oh...A WIND ADVISORY...

Let me tell you ---it was SO worth it when we arrived at church.

Worship was INCREDIBLE! The best worship service I have attended in the past four years. I'm not kidding. God is good. He rewards those who diligently seek Him - especially when seeking through a blinding blizzard!


...they who seek the LORD will praise him...
-Psalm 22:26

God is good! Loved the Win-de-jizer. We still say Corp-re-tater (tape recorder)as my daughter coined the phrase...and praying for your job!

When there's a windejizer, I just want to stay in bed and stay warm! Good for you guys braving the elements and going to church - you were blessed because of your faithfulness!
Think spring - this can't last forever...right?
