Football disappointments and.....SNOW?

Yes people.....it snowed in the deep south...and we missed it! This past weekend we headed to Bossier for one of my good friend's 30th birthday, and while we were having a fun, baby free night....hattiesburg received between 1 and 2 inches of snow! It did snow in Bossier...for a good 2-3 hours, but the temperature wasn't cold enough for it to stick. By the time the storm moved into Mississippi, the temperature had dropped and it stuck down here. On our way back down on Sunday, we saw snow on the side of the road as well as a few tiny snowmen....so cute. It was very odd to drive SOUTH to see snow. All that know us know that we lived in Kansas for 2 years so we have seen our share of snow....it was a big reason why we hated living there. Growing up in the south, snow has always been a huge excitement so when we moved up there and everyone was so just like whatever about it...it crushed my snow spirit. But I'm happy to say that I can once again be excited about seeing it snow, because I know that by noon the next day, it will all be melted!!



Paw and Peyton in the snow in Bossier

Peyton all bundled up for cold weather...yes he wore that hat last year

In other news....these last few weeks have been a huge let down for our little family. The Cowboys lost their playoff game....yes you can all take a moment of silence and pray that my husband will recover. Peyton got into the game also and in the very end when Brad threw his hat at the t.v., Peyton didn't miss a beat telling his daddy "UH OH". It was priceless. This past sunday ended with more disappointment when our "backup" team lost.....Green Bay couldn't pull it off in overtime. So now we're having this big super bowl party and we don't really even care to watch it!! Our little family will still put on our Dallas Cowboy jerseys and hope that next year will be a better year. We're already planning on going to at least one game since it will be the last year they will play in Texas Stadium....Peyton has to experience at least one game there...even if he won't remember it.

This picture is just for fun...Peyton is wearing his train conductor hat and scarf...this was the only split second he would keep it on for a picture.
