Snow Days 2011

Well, we had our first snow day on Tuesday. Then we had Wednesday, Thursday and Friday! This has been the coldest weather in a decade! I can't believe that Fort Worth ISD closed for four days in a row. I am glad that they are putting our safety first. Those of you that know me know I was prepared on Monday for this. I had my sub plans ready. I don't do ice! Driving in this kind of weather is one of my biggest fears. Having a wreck in icy weather while I was pregnant with Lily Grace did not help ease this fear! We have been relaxing at home. I haven't had cabin fever yet. Wednesday we spent the day at my parent's house. While the rest of Texas was having rolling blackouts, my street had a complete blackout for about 12 hours. When it first came back on, it stayed on for 15 min., then went off again for 15 min. and came back on. Then if went off again during the night. It came back on at 6:00 in the morning. Lily Grace and I watched a little too much t.v. today. I took Lily Grace outside for about 15 minutes on Tuesday afternoon. That was all we could take! She really wanted to make a snow angel. She has been talking about making snow angels since Thanksgiving. She remembers the snow last Christmas and thinks that we have snow on Christmas. She got a little spoiled. Needless to say, the snow had turned into ice and we were not able to make snow angles or a snowman! I did however, get some cute pictures out of the ordeal! I got a great new facebook profile picture!
