I was so excited for the snow to arrive and boy did it! Yesterday we had a horrible ice storm that continued into the night and about 230am the willow tree in our neighbors yard fell and hit our house, then rolled of into our yard. Let me tell you, there is nothing like waking up and hearing and feeling a tree coming your way! Daris and I ran into Robyn's room and I swear, our feet never touched the ground! Luckily Robyn slept through the whole thing. We ran outside and check everything out. It was so light outside from the snow that we didn't even use our flashlights. Our gutters took the biggest hit. The roof and fence our fine!!! We were surprised to see the snowman still standing. The tree took it's time falling the rest of the morning, so every time the branches were breaking I was freaking out. I've been up since 230 so I'm a little tired. Brother Barker came over and helped me clean up the mess. Thank you so much Jeremy!!!! I hate to see what branches are coming down tonight!
It's been a couple of days since starting this post.....The day after the tree feel, the snow was melting very fast and water was everywhere. Luckily the Conrad's came down to help clean up our mess....and two hours after they arrived the power went out. So we ended up spending the night with them and staying warm. The power came back on the next night and we were so happy to be able to return to home. now if only trash day would hurry up and get here, I would be a happy woman! Best snow week EVER!!
