From hot to cold

Texas weather is so crazy--I grew up here and it still never ceases to amaze me how much it can change is just a day or two! Saturday it was about 73 degrees or so, 3 days later we have a high of 20 degrees with a low in the single digits! And as of now we will not be above freezing until Friday! What are we going to do?! Good thing I went to the store on Monday to stock up on food. Poor Seth, I could tell he really wanted to get out of the house and play today, but it was just so cold and VERY windy. We had to get pretty creative today to keep our little 14 month old boy occupied. Normally he and mommy get out alot during the day to mix things up. But today we watched some of his videos, knocked over some blocks, played cars, tossed the football... mommy and daddy took turns playing with him while the other got some things done or rested! Anyway, Last night we had something the weather people called 'thunder-sleet.' This is a normal thunderstorm but instead of rain, we get freezing rain and sleet which makes for a nice sheet of ice over all the roads. Spencer was fortunate enough to get to stay home today and will also get to stay home tomorrow--lots of family time the next 2 days! Seth and Daddy out for a few seconds in the cold
our snow covered yard- our driveway is a sheet of ice!

he liked looking outside today!
