The Blizzard of 2008

Well, as the title states, we have just come through a two day snow storm, labeled a blizzard, by Ohio standards! While it is the most snow we have seen in almost three years, about 14", this is a common snow storm back in Ct. Way back in 1978, when by first child was only 7 months old, we had a huge blizzard. We were living in Ma. at the time and we were shut down for five days!! Try shouvling 4 feet of snow! It's was a good thing we were young and thought it was a great adventure. Then in the year 2000 my oldest daughter was getting married. Her wedding date was Dec. 31st and guess what, we had a blizzard!!!! We had to cancel the limo and call up everyone who had 4-wheel drive! In the end, almost everyone came out and it was the most beautiful wedding ever. But, I have warned the other five ladies in my home that there will be no more winter weddings!! Photos to come!!

Ready for spring!


These are photos of our girls from Uganda and Philippines. Reyna is on the left and Phoihna is on the right. They were both sweethearts!

Well, today is Tuesday and Ohio's primary and it is pouring outside! Yesterday was a tease with the temps being 70 degrees! Emma enjoyed a walk with her da looking around the neighborhood. :) Life has been busy this past week. Nadya was sick over the weekend with a sinus infection among other things. Today I am sick with the "other things". I have had this same cold/cough 4X this winter!!! I am so ready for some sun and warm breezes and green grass and pretty flowers.
