Catching Up!

We had a really good week last week.  Adam was off work for the whole week and we weren't scheduled to go anywhere!  I was still working though.  He seemed to have a good week.  He did handy man things around the house and took care of the boys and tried to make things easier on me, which was pretty cool.


On Tuesday we were able to go out for a quiet dinner for two, to celebrate my 32nd birthday.  We went to Outback with out the kids!  It was a pretty nice time to just sit, relax and re-connect. We tried to do a little Christmas shopping while we were out, but that didn't go so good.  I have one thing to say, and it is this:  What has happened to Customer Service?


On Thursday, Jade had a Chorus program at school. She was up on stage singing and performing with her Chorus group.  It was really sweet to see her having so much fun and getting in to the Christmas Spirit like she did.

All week long, we anticipated a big snow storm and on Friday morning it finally hit.  I didn't even think about it when I sent Jade to school.  She leaves around 7:00 am.  About 8 am, snow was coming down and starting to stick.  Those Buses and cars should not be on the roads in slick conditions.  The roads are just roads, and they don't have sidewalks.  It would be very easy for them to end up down in a hole.  School was shut down at 10:00 am and kids were sent home. 

You see, we don't get very many snow storms here in NC and when we do the whole town shuts down.  School is cancelled, stores are closed, and no one is out driving around.. except for the crazies who think the elements wont effect them.


It was a BEAUTIFUL day!  The snow was just so magical and we couldn't help but watch it and talk about it and play in it all weekend long!  We made a snowman and an igloo and did lots of sledding and snowball throwing.  It was awesome and it was so nice to have Adam home to enjoy it with us!  He loves the snow!  It was really cute to see him out with the kids playing and participating!  He is such a good Daddy!

Adam and I have been battling some crappy throat head cold something or other.  It is yucky!  I think mine is now a sinus infection.  Gosh I sure hate being sick!

Here are some pictures of Adam dancing around with the boys during the storm.  It is kind of weird when you can’t leave your house for 2 whole days!  You find new things to do!

What a great posting, I love how you had great pictures, but I especially love the bottom picture of Adam dancing with the twins.. I zoomed in a saw that you had QVC on the TV.. I watch that same channel, and it reminds me of Grandma Craig. In a good way not in a bad way. Happy Holidays, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and yours.--Marg
