winter weather

The kids were out of school on Monday for MLK, so Bryce went to Massanutten to snowboard with the Atlee ski club.  He drove himself and made it to and from safely and had a great time.  He's second in line on the right side.  Emmy slept in, made some money cleaning with Nana and then went to the mall with friends.  The rest of our week was spent prepping for a snowstorm.  

Emmy's school had a parent/staff vs student basketball game on Frida night.  She skipped gym so she could go with friends.  It was a theme night, and she and her friend won most creative.  They got coupons for free CFA meals, and she cashed hers in the very next day!

At the beginning of the week, we were forecasted to get A LOT of snow.  The predictions diminished throughout the week, and it looked more like an ice storm.  We prepped everything we could think of for every scenario.  As of Sunday night, we still have power and didn't seem to get as much ice as predicted.  We're hoping to make it through the night with heat.  We have plenty of food to make it through without power, but it is supposed to be bitter cold, so we hope we keep power.  The kids are out of school tomorrow and may be all week if the temperatures continue to stay so low.
