Winter Wonderland!





Friday night, February 12th, I took the kids to go see Avatar. It started at 7 PM. Around 8 PM Vicki's phone went crazy with all these incoming text messages! She was recieving intel from her friends from Havelock to Richlands that it was snowing! She leaned over and passed on the news to me. Avatar is a long movie, great movie, but long, so you can imagine how much snow was on the ground by the time we exited the movie! We were on a Marine base, so of course a full blown snow ball fight broke out in the parking lot! It was sooo much fun! Than the reality set in that i had to drive us home in this! UHG! Thank goodness we were in the Commander!! Much bigger than the jeep! We made it home without me crashing into anything!!! Amazing!! It snowed all night!!! Saturday morning we woke up to 6 inches of snow! It was beautiful!!! The kids had a ton of fun playing with their friends! Vicki made a snow angel, i made a snow man, Ty and Ryan had countless snowball wars with thier friends, Jasper had sooo much fun running thru it and digging for his tennis ball. Tank on the other hand......hated it!!! He would NOT go outside for anything! We finally carried him out and Jorden put him in a non snow grass area. But, nooooo, Tank did not want anyone to see him do his buisness, so he tried to walk back in the snow, sinking to his shoulders! He was NOT happy!!! Jorden went and got him and set up a litter box for him in the garage. Tank, the cat who refused to use a litter box in typhoons and would battle 150 mph winds to go potty outside would NOT go in the snow! Must be a tropical thing!

WOW, snow!! Can't say that I miss it too much. Today was HOT HOT HOT. It's been really cold (i'm talking like in the 50s cold), so today was killer hot. Enjoy the snow for us. Not sure we will see to much snow in 29 palms.
