What a Weekend

Wow, we had a crazy weekend!! And boy did the snow come down!!! It was beautiful. I'm gonna post some pics of us later this week. Shawn's parents took Caitlyn Sunday morning at church cause she had been sick all weekend. I think its just her sinuses, but I'm not sure. But she chunked up everywhere right before we got to church. I spent the whole service cleaning out her carseat, and the car...in the rain...lol... It was lovely. But anyway, so Shawn and I couldn't head home until about 5:00 Sunday evening which the snow following the rain began heavily at 4:15 where we were at. We got on the road, and let me say, there sure are some idiots out there. Either they think they can drive in snow that they've obviously never seen, or they're trying to take advantage of their car insurance.

We were driving really slow on the interstate where only one lane was clear from traffic continuously traveling on it, while other idiots were trying to create their own lanes around us. Those were the ones we were afraid of. Slippin and slidin everywhere. I don't know where DOT was, but I think they slept through their afternoon nap alarm, cause the single lane that was created on the interstate consisted of the white line going down the center of our car...lol... Whoever created that lane was just driving wherever, but we were following. Anyhow, so we made it as far as Anderson by 6:30 and couldn't go any further. Those of you who know where we live, it was obvious going any further was useless. Our subdivision is so hilly, there's no way we'd of gotten past the first hill before our road, much less our own road and driveway.

So we stopped in Anderson at a hotel and walked next door and ate at Fatz Cafe. Never been there. That was really good...yum. Watching the heavy snow fall out the window, it was romantic : ) We would've played in it, but my heels from church weren't a match for that activity. I barely made it back to the room without busting my rear. But the next morning, we had to check out at 11, so we attempted our drive home. The roads weren't too bad, but they weren't very nice. We hit that first hill before our road and Shawn's breaks locked up. That was fun. And when we approached our driveway, we realized it was completely frozen over, so we had to park at the bottom of the hill and walk up the steep yard. At least we had power though...yay! So we played in the snow. Used Caitlyn's dollhouse roof to do some sledding. I'll try to post a video also this week so ya'll can see. It'll definitely be on facebook. It was hilarious, although Caitlyn didn't enjoy it too much...lol
