Ice in Texas

So as Dallas/Fort Worth/Arlington gear up for the Super Bowl we are having record breaking snow and ice. Four days straight of no school. We are dealing with treacherous driving conditions. John drives from OKC to Midlothian on Thursday evenings. Usually it takes him about 3 1/2 hours. Tonight it took him almost six hours. Tonight it is supposed to snow 1-3 inches.

Snow in Texas

We had a record breaking snow fall on Thursday. We had over 10 inches of snow in one day. Someplaces in our yard were as deep as 18 inches. The newsreporter on Thursday night said the biggest problem on Friday morning would people actually getting out of their own driveway. We have video!!! Cristin missed all her siblings as she romped around in the snow with just the dog.

I am new at this family blog thing. I hope to give you a blow by blow of our upcoming move. Tomorrow the realitor comes to take pictures of our house for the world wide web. Also the movers are coming to access how much junk we have to move. I have been boxing up stuff to declutter our home. It has actually been rather cathartic. John starts work on March 1st with a trip to Mercer Island in Washington state to meet the corporate people and then starts officially on his new job on his birthday March 4th.
