Dreaming of warm sunsets…

Sunset January 2010

just like those we enjoyed merely two days ago.

Today, during the “severe” weather watch that only the South shuts down for, we are watching the rain fall, wind blow and ice form on the  tips of the branches of Cypress trees.  No ice on the roads just yet, but we have hunkered down for the weekend.  Mel and I ventured out to dinner at Bow Thai and then to Wal-Mart last night to prepare for the severe weather while our girls enjoyed movie night at First Baptist Church.  We stocked up on Moon Sand, movies and munchies.  (Along with the rest of Hartsville, who inevitably stocks up on bread and milk at even the remote possibility of ice.)

Daddy left for work early, so today, so far, the girls’ team has enjoyed a late and large breakfast, created a Moon Sand castle, roller skated around the house at least 300 times, made chocolate frozen banana pops, ate popcorn for lunch, have had two dance parties and have watched at least a dozen iCarly episodes. (Is iCarly always on Nick?)  It isn’t often that we are home for more than a two hour stretch, so I’ve still got some planning to do, as it is only 2pm.  Maybe a nap is in store for us.

Hopefully after our severe weather weekend, we’ll enjoy more 60-70ish weather once again!   Until then…

Nonnie has been locked up tight today-no power for awhile was awful. I’m wishing for sunny days at the beach! Maybe Florida for “Spring break”, but wait-you get to go to St. John in March! Then we can all go to Sissy’s for lots of fun-maybe “SEA World”. Miss you on this cold afternoon-I love your pictures! NON
