Two weeks ago we had a beautiful snowfall and I took a picture of the back yard and thought, "Oh, I need to blog about our first real snow". But, I got busy enjoying my snow day and let the moment pass.
Well... there will be no delay reporting this one! We have had a winter weather event that is absolutely blog-worthy! The first ice storm of the season has arrived. I was of course laying in bet at 6 AM hoping for a snow day. I got up to check the delays and cancellations. I only had a two hour delay, so I decided to go back to bed and snuggle :-) Well about 8:10 as I continue to struggle to get out of bed...Chuck and I hear this horrific sound. We both bolt out of bed. We go down to the main level to look out of our picture window. In front of our eyes is a huge section of tree down across the front yard and drive way! The first thing out of my mouth was "Thank you, Lord!" Now before you jump to conclusions, it was not because I was not going to be able to go to school! On the contrary, I really was thanking Him for protecting our house, both of our cars, the light post, and even the trash can! Chuck and I have decided to stop procrastinating and get that tree in the front yard taken down!

Woa ! Glad the car wasn't parked there!
I'm glad the tree limb didn't smash anything of importance! We've been having all sorts of weather events....days off for snow, delays for slippery roads, and today a day off for fog. All just for Adam of course. We homeschoolers just keep plugging away so that we can be done in May!
Hey Karla!
It is so wonderful to hear from you and to get to see the wonderful pics of you and Chuck and Emily. It still amazes me how fast the time has gone...I can't believe Emily is driving!!! You are as beautiful as ever and so glad to be reconnected with you.
I tried to confirm your facebook add, but for some reason it isn't working. I tried to look you up on facebook and no luck either. Got any wisdom for me? LOL!!
Keep in touch...Dave and I have been praying for Kendra too. I sent her a note on her blogger, hopefully she will get it too.
Check out www.bethash.net if you want to see what I have been up to lately. Let me treat you to a coaching session sometime! =)
love you and love to Chuck and Emily!

It seems that all of ROA got hit with the ice which in turn meant trees down. \
This place likes to keep homeowners on their toes.
Hey, Karla!! It was great to check out your blog. I have to admit I'm new to blogging and not quite sure what I'm doing. I loved the video of you and Chuck. I remember seeing several of those pictures on your mirror in college. I also enjoyed the JPY picture!!! What a blast from the past!! It seems like you've been doing a much better job than me at keeping up with former classmates. It's hard to believe Emily is driving - I couldn't even figure out who she was in the picture at first.
I also tried to confirm you as a friend in Facebook without any luck.
I'll keep checking your blog for more interesting news and interesting (and scary) memories!
