On our way out

to take the kids to youth group last night,  it seemed that the warmer weather brought out even the smallest deer.  This one was strolling down the road all alone.   Becky seemed to think it sleeps under the pines at the neighbors up the way.   It was just meandering around not in any hurry to get away from the car as we slowly passed.

Tom and I took our big night out last night while the girls were busy and bought a coffee pot.   Much to my  discontent of choice,  he picked out an automatic drip.   I told him fair is fair and we will return to drip and see how it tastes.  I prefer the much more standard and original perk coffee.  

Now to get the girls motiviated this morning.   We have sleet, ice, snow covering everything.   What fun it is to go and get Benny this morning.   At least it is early while the weather is still building, not in the middle of the storm we are to get this afternooon and tonight.   I like to pick him up early and get the horses shod first thing.  Then upon returning we can get down to business of school.
