He is Not Here, But is Risen

Now upon the first day of the week, very early in the morning, they came unto the sepulchre, bringing the spices which they had prepared, and certain others with them. And they found the stone rolled away from the sepulchre.

And they entered in, and found not the body of the Lord Jesus. And it came to pass, as they were much perplexed thereabout, behold, two men stood by them in shining garments:

And as they were afraid, and bowed down their faces to the earth, they said unto them, Why seek ye the living among dead?

He is not here, but is risen: remember how he spake unto you when he was yet in Galilee.

We’re snowed in!

This is the view from my front door (more or less).

Ok, actually it looks more like this:

That snow drift covering the entire front yard also covers my front porch.  It wouldn’t be out of place in Minnesota, but here in Portland, OR it’s a little unusual.

Update: Snow accumulation on my neighbor’s shed:
Update II: Better picture of the shed to give a better idea of just how much snow is mounded on the roof:

“…as if she were a perfectly normal human being?”

My sister Carrie married her fiance Adam last night, continuing a sudden trend among my siblings I began in February.  My sister Staci will marry her fiance David in September, and now the pressure is on my brother Jason to find a wife.

My grandfather says that a November wedding would be acceptable.
