Walkin' in a Winter Wonderland!

It's Tuesday and I'm back at work. This weekend was so wonderful! Friday, I was at work and it snowed a little bit and then it turned to snow. I ended up leaving early, about 4, and it had started getting bad in Stanley. I slid out of the parking lot at work and by the time I got to Iron Station, the roads were absolutely covered! It just kept getting thicker and thicker. Lincoln county had always got more winter weather than Gaston county.Everyone in Gaston County got mostly ice. When I got to my road, it was like I was 4-wheelin'! i was only going about 25mph because it was so thick! But so beautiful! everything was covered and it was coming down in such huge flakes! I finally made it home. John was already at home. He had been Christmas shopping for me :o) and was wrapping them while I was on my 30 minute ride home! So I came in and got warmed up only to go back outside and play with the dogs out in the snow. Its quit snowing about 8:30 and began sleeting. I think it sleeting for most of the night. We got about 6 inches of snow and about 2 to 3 inches of ice and it all stuck around for my birthday! Saturday we were stuck inside all day. John and I played Guitar hero and watched movies the whole time. By the evening the roads were clear enough to ride on so my parents came to the house and we had pizza birthday cake and watch the Pixar Short films. Which is what John gave me the next morning for my birthday. Sunday we had our Christmas musical and it went great,even though we didn't get to have practice on Friday night because of the snow. It was still very good and was hard to hold back the tears and sing in some parts! After church we ate and then went home to rest. That night John took me to Olive Garden ( my favorite place) for my birthday. It was so nice. My cousin Carmen came to see me when we got back and we all just hung out! I had such a great weekend. Full of all kinds of fun! I have such a great Husband. I love him so much!
