We heard all about the snow coming and oh course I didn't believe it cause we never get it but boy was I surprise to see coming down on Sunday night. I just thought at this moment it would just be enough to put everything on a 2hr delay boy was I wrong on that too.. I think Eric said we got 6" and it was beautiful. Eric prepare us by batteries, firewood, food, you know all the stuff just in case the power goes out. Which thank goodness we never lost power, I know some friends that lost it on Sunday and didn't get it back until Tuesday and I am totally surprise we didn't cause we always do. We did lose our satellite around 7pm and didn't get it back until 11:30. I was complaining about not getting to see the first night of Celebrity Apprentice but Eric reminded me I was warm and had light and could heat something up and there was people who couldn't so that was my one and only complaint... I still need to get DVR..
Ok, what did we do w/ no TV Sunday night?? Well, Eric had bought everything to make a cake and made a comment about the chocolate chips would be good in it. So, I made us a chocolate cake w/chocolate chips and chocolate frosting (I must have rub off on him w/ my chocolate love). I got it out before it burn (our oven is weird), I let it cool before I put it on the cake pan and frost it but for some reason it doesn't didn't do what I wanted to. By the way, I was told by Eric if I didn't post about this he would do it so I figure I would give myside of the story..lol
Now, do you think I need to go and get Kim to help me out. Her cakes are always so pretty. This might look bad but it is all gone and that is unusal in this house esp when I can't yeah you just read that right I CAN'T eat the cake not because of dieting which it help it out but since my surgery chocolate is one of those foods that I bothers me to eat and this cake really hurt my stomach so those 2 bites I had where good but not good for the pain it cause.
The other thing that happen during all of this was that Ryan had gone to Cumming, GA to play at a D Now weekend with our youth band Ready To Rise and on the way back they came up in the traffic, saw lots of wrecks, and wipers freezing up and not working so Bucky did a great thing and pulled off and got rooms at a hotel in Powdersville, they had to go to 2 but they were off the road and safe so I was able to sleep that night. I am sure those kids and Bucky and Julie have stories to tell. They finally made it back to Spartanburg about 1 Monday after a stop to Crackle Barrel and some play time on 85 while they were in stand still traffic.
We didn't prepare by having gloves, snow shoes or waterproof, getting the 4wheeler fix so we could go out and ride, checking out around us for hills and getting sleds so we didn't get to have all the fun that everybody else did but they men in my house did go out for a snow ball fight. Nobody wanted to build a snowman and with me still coughing and had been sick all Friday night and Saturday I just went out to take pics and came back in.. So, here is some of our snow day pics. Sorry I do in a slide but it takes like 5 min per pic to download and slide is easier to do cause I can do all at one time and while downloading I can go take a shower..lol
