The 4-1-1 on the Harrigan Fam. . . (is that right?)

Anyway, I have like a hundred pics that I have been wanting to post about all the non-adoption related, and yet terribly interesting fun we've been having around the Harrigan house these last several weeks. SO, this is like those 2 minute, get you up to date with the headlines kind of blog. :)

1. We have used, and thoroughly enjoyed, the new wood stove installed last May. With high temps near 0 this past week, it has dramatically helped. (though if you are in the basement very long, it is not nearly as pleasant down there!!!) Either way, fire is fun for little boys, so there was much grandeur involved in building the first!



2. Bethany's bedding has been purchased and put in the room. It is incredibly cute, if you ask me, and Benjamin helped put it all together! We had a blast talking about and praying for our new family member on the way.



3. It has snowed here. A lot. See below. :)



4. Our dear friends Andrew and Lydia Faith got engaged this past week, and though Andrew is overseas for a year, they plan to marry in GA next Spring! Whoo hoo!



5. This just in. . . . Samuel is really cute.



6. On another note all together, Daddy Harrigan decided to go for a midnight sledding adventure with four other friends. Really?? Wow.



7. On a final note, we have a video from mostly Samuel, though I had to tie Benjamin down to not jump into the fun. We have family devotions most nights, and Samuel has formed a definite opinion now about his favorite song, "This is the day."



Goodnight and goodbye!

More snow fun!

Well, as in classic KC fashion, it snowed twice in the week before Christmas and is looking for another snow later today. We love it here, but my heart is growing in love for the weather. Not that I don't like snow- it's very fun. However, with the snow comes cold temps, and usually it gets colder and stays longer than we ever knew in Northwest Arkansas. In my nerdy kind of way, I was attempting to learn why this is so different, only 3 1/2 hours apart and this is the quote I was told, "There is nothing between Canada air and Kansas City except fenceposts." So for those of you down south, be grateful for those beautiful mountains and the wind that they stop! (Sorry Papa, as I know you long for the snow!)

All that to say, we do have fun in it!
