Love this weather!

It is about 9am on Sunday morning and the weather is just starting to get bad again. I love this weather because it forces us to stay inside and get all those little things (we keep putting off) done! Not to mention the 1:1 time we spend together.

Actually, yesterday we went shopping all day. It was so much fun because we felt like we had the mall to ourselves. The streets weren't really that bad, and the Tahoe is great in this weather. We also went out to eat and surprisingly, most places were open. We each got a few things (clothes) and then we went to radio shack to get a new bluetooth. I have one that is black & silver and has a small arm to talk through. I wanted to give that one to Brett (since he didn't have one) so we bought me a pink one. That way he won't use mine. haha Sierra loves using the bluetooth. Brett is making sure they are both up-to-date with the newest technology.

Later in the afternoon, we went to Brandon Weeden's house. That's where BL and about 10 other friends decided to settle for the weekend. Oh to be young again! They were having so much fun. Brandon Weeden bought a house in our old neighborhood and it is really nice. Wood floors, faux painted walls, rock entrance, etc... They gave us the tour and it was hilarious! There was a pallet in the closet, in the study and about anywhere you looked someone had made a bed for the night. We encouraged all of them to stay in for the night. And Brett, being the giving, sensitive person that he is, offered to buy all of them pizza. Of course they declined saying they all had good paying jobs, but were very appreciative. Speaking of good paying jobs, BL is now making anywhere from $300-$600/weekly giving lessons...not a bad gig. In fact, he told us last night a lady called to book a lesson for her 6 year old son (who doesn't even play baseball) but she saw BL's flyer (with his picture) and wanted him to give her son lessons. Oh yeah, she asked him out on a date also. haha She is 28 years old and BL laughed and said he thought he would have to pass on that one.

We spoke to the little ones several times yesterday. They are having fun and staying warm inside. Sierra is just about to the age where we can talk to her via email while she is gone. We have our desktop hooked up on a desk in the garage since we have two laptops, so that "might" be an option for her in the near future. She loves to get online and play Barbie or Scooby Doo games. She is so smart, just amazes me sometimes. I had so much fun with her this past week. We did a lot of "girl" things and she was so affectionate. She crawled up in bed with me one morning and said, "Mommy, you are the second coolest mom" and I said, "thank you sweetheart". She stopped and said, "No, you are the first coolest mom when I am here. When I'm with Ali, you are the second coolest" haha. She's going to be in politics! Then there is JB. WHICH, by the way, is the only name he wants us to call him. I got on the phone with him yesterday and said, "Hi Pierce!", he said, "Mommy, you don't even know who this is, I'm JB, not Pierce" I've got to remember that because he gets pretty insistent. He has grown up so much these past few months. We called Megan several times yesterday and she was home, staying warm. Her car is horrible in this weather. Brett drove her home from work on Friday and I picked him up at her apartment. We only have one car this weekend because mine is at the Lincoln dealership. Couldn't have happened on a better weekend.

Well, the ice is really coming down now. Guess we will be doing LifeChurch online today.

Hope everyone is doing well and staying warm! Miss hearing from you.
