Blizzard

Well, they have been forecasting a blizzard here all week and although it did hit west of here (Pratt got 28 inches!) we don't even have an inch of snow here yet. So far all we got was ice! I hope my poor trees don't crack in half!

We are supposed to get up to a foot of snow here in Wichita but it just finally started snowing here about an hour ago - it was supposed to come during the night - so I doubt we get that much. But it is really coming down now so maybe we'll get a few inches. Looks like a good day to just stay at home and cuddle. For me and Hudson that is - Jamie was already going stir crazy at 9 am and he left to go on a little "ride". (Which actually means go to Starbucks to get coffee.). He took a shovel with him and stopped and helped a few cars dig out of the snow and ice...I'm hoping the basketball games this afternoon will keep him occupied but I doubt it will last all day before he has to get out again. He doesn't understand how I can go 3-4 days at a time without even leaving the house!

My birch tree in the front yard - and I about broke a leg trying to get down the front steps to take this picture - they are a solid sheet of ice!
The willow tree in the back. I hope this doesn't hurt all my trees - they were all starting to bud already since the weather had been so nice.
