Icepocalypse 2010

Just wanted to share a few pics of the big snow/ice storm we had over the last couple of days. Nathan's office closed on Thursday and Friday and I had CPE to get done so we both just worked from home on those two days. We did brave the weather on Friday night and go to the Thunder game - I had tickets through work and they were good seats...didn't want to miss out on that! Plus, the weather had calmed down by then, we were tired of being in the house, and I wanted a hot dog! The other good thing about that was that we had a parking pass for the parking garage and our car actually thawed quite nicely while it was under there!

And before anyone gives me grief about the dogs boots, let me just say, in this kind of weather you have to protect their feet. Those little pads on the bottom are really sensitive to the cold and it's also bad for them to be walking on the salt and junk that people put out to melt the snow. Besides, if he doesn't have them on, he walks off the porch, makes a motion of lifting his leg just to make us think he's taking care of business, and then turns around and sits on the front porch until we let him back in. As for the sweatshirt, if we don't put it back on him, he curls up with it to sleep on the couch.

I thought we were supposed to be thawing out today but Nathan says he thinks it was snowing when he took Kona out earlier, and there's a chance of freezing drizzle tomorrow morning and then freezing rain AGAIN on Wed./Thurs. or Thurs./Fri.

I should go start getting ready - church was canceled this morning but we're going to lunch w/our small group and maybe a few others. Hope everyone is staying warm!
