When through the woods and forest glades I wander
And hear the birds sing sweetly in the trees,
When I look down from lofty mountain grandeur,
And hear the brook and feel the gentle breeze:

How great thou art! How great thou art!
Then sings my soul, my Savior God, to thee:
How great thou art! How great thou art!
We recently had an ice storm where I live. I'm usually not thrilled with
winter weather like this, which is why I'm glad I live in Texas
-because we don't normally have super cold winters. But I definitely
don't mind a little snow every now and then! To enjoy the weather, I
decided to make an ice sculpture. I had no idea what I was gonna make
when I started, but when I was done it slightly resembled Chimney Rock! So of course I acted like that is what I had set out to sculpt.
