Snow on October 12th


Can you believe it. Here it is October and the weather guy last night said that the winter storm warning is probably not going to give us as much snow as they thought. Well he was wrong. I measured it at 8:45am and we had a solid 5 inches already with more coming down.



Now the big downfall of the snow was our wonderful square foot garden, like disintegrated over night. You can see all of the snow on top of the covering that we hoped would protect the vegetables. I was able to save some but we are going to loose a lot :(





Now the fun for the weekend. There were two other ladies that helped me put on a wonderful baby shower for my visiting teaching partner. She had a wonderful turn out. We literally had women show up before Sunny even arrived and we had ladies showing up even after the time set to be done. Thanks again to Karlinda, and Erin for all of their help, what a great success. This is Sunny's first baby due Nov 8, it's a girl. Weee loove girls. We like boys but girls have more choices for outfits and cutsie stuff.
And of course we had great food.

The other thing that was neat was we got to spend time with Amy and Elizabeth this weekend. Amy stayed with us on Friday night. And all five of us (after the baby shower) went to see a play at the Washington Terrace Playhouse theater. We saw Aida. The director is the director at Layton High and several of the actors Kait knew from the Titanic and Amy and Elizabeth also did several shows with the director also when they went to Layton High. It was fun to spend some time with the girls. What an exhausting weekend.

Ahhhhhhhh!

Keep the snow! I am SOOOO not ready for any of it to come this way.

I don't want to be T-or-Ting with the kids in the snow. . .although I remember doing it as a kid.

Thankfully this weekend was an Indian Summer weekend. Awesome warm weather to the point where we needed to turn some fans on to keep cool! Gotta love that last and final day of summer! The 80ยบ was nice!

I hope more of your crops make it than you think. That's awful to lose all of that food to weather.

Glad the party was a fun one and you got to spend it with Amy and Elizabeth!
