Update

We had a great weekend. "Hairspray" was too cute!

Sunday we went to church and on our way we could see grass,

roads and almost everything else that snow could cover.

BUT...as church was letting out we noticed we could not

see the once dry parking lot. It was snowing HUGE flakes

and had been since we had been there. Oh my, the snow was

back. The weather forecast had predicted that we were

to have a winter storm...man were they right! The snow

turned to rain and then the rain turned to ICE.

This picture does not do this moon justice! On Saturday,

we took at trip to Mishawaka, IN. We wanted to go to Dick's

Sporting Goods and eat at Chick~fil~A! (mainly eat at Chick~fil~A)

We made a day of it...ate at Chick~fil~A twice, got what we needed

for Will at Dick's, checked out Super Target and drove around

Notre Dame. On our way home we got to watch this AMAZING

moon. When we first spotted it, it was low, huge and bright orange!

We watched it all the way home...it was beautiful!

Sunday night was weird...the power was on and off

through the first half of the night and then about

2:00am the power was OUT! I thought it would

be right back on but that was not the case. We just got

power Tuesday afternoon about 2:00pm. So, Will did not

have school Monday or Tuesday...Daddy did not have work either.

Monday was filled with going to Panera for breakfast, playing

games at home, playing ds and i touch (until they were dead),

going out again for lunch and supper.

here we are playing Toy Story 3 Kerplunk

(thanks MawMaw)

It is such a fun game!

onto watercolors and drawing

Rhett pretended to write his name on

"Drew's Woody"

now onto trains

You can see we played lots!

On Monday afternoon, I got a call from a friend that

she and her son were on their way to the hospital.

We wanted to help so I got on some decent clothes and headed

to the hospital. The boys stayed with Jeremy and played more.

(remember we still do not have power...LOTS of people didn't)

When dark came...the boys headed back to Panera for supper!

After being at the hospital for a little bit, I came back home and

we all used flashlights. We stayed at home because our fireplace

kept us WARM. On Tuesday, we went to our friends house to

stay with their daughter and we all got freshened up! It worked

out well. We did end up getting power about 2:00pm so Jeremy

came home and got the house back into shape.....THANKS!

It is now Wednesday and things are getting back to normal.

WOW, what a weird last couple of days! We are all so thankful

for our electricity! My friend and her son are still at the hospital

but will get to come home today. YEA! He is going to be okay, just

will have a lifestyle change...nothing they can't handle. God has

been with them through all of this! We will be praying that God

will help them get adjusted to this "NEW" way of living.

PHEW....what a long post...SORRY...just wanted to update you.
