Icepocalypse 2013

Thursday evening a little ice storm rolled into North Texas! I of course was on call at the hospital.  Thankfully we only worked till about 1930. I drove over to my friends house to spend the night.  It was sleeting but not too bad at the time.   I woke up about 530 to drive back to Stephenville.   I drove about 25 mph between Granbury and home.  It took about an hour and a half but I made it safely!  The roads were pretty icy.  

I got home made Rygh and me breakfast and then he went out to feed the cows.   Pretty much the past three days I have been cooking and cleaning.  We had a pretty yummy beef stew which included pinto beans, tomatoes, potatoes, rice, and a ranch packet for seasoning.  It's been pretty good!  Friday evening we braved the roads and went to our Sunday School class party.  It was a lot of fun.  I made little carrot cakes which were the bomb.  We learned a new game called heads up. It's an app on the ipad. Needless to say Rygh and I have been playing it ever since. 

Saturday, we ventured out to get my a new phone! I had my iPhone for 3 and a half years which is the longest I've ever had a phone! I was a little sad to pay with it but I got a Samsung note and I love it!  It has a great camera!  We also went to heb and Montana for lunch.  Sadly, the kitchen pipes froze!  We spent the afternoon watching college football.  We are pretty excited for Baylor and a little sad MIZZOU lost!  We ended the night eating my beef stew and carrot cake.

Sunday, church was canceled. I made bacon, eggs, and grapefruit for breakfast. We did a little sledding and had a lot of fun.  We had toasted sandwiches and stew for lunch.  I made a chocolate pie for dinner and sausage and Potatoe casserole for dinner. Rygh said it tastes just like his mom's!

I have Monday off so hopefully more of the ice will melt!  We originally planned to go to Kansas City this weekend to celebrate my cousin Heather's wedding but because of the ice we stayed home. It's been nice spending a long weekend at home with Rygh and the dogs.   Hope everyone had a good weekend!
