Iceapocolypse 2014

Sooo this ice/snow storm was a shock to me. I underestimated Mother Nature. Before the ice and snow hit, Saturday night Landon and I spent time with friends! He went to Beale with a few of our friends and I went to Marianna to see my best friend!! We both had a great time! Sunday is when all the weather started!! It very beautiful but very cold!! Landon and I were both very fortunate to not have to go to work in this mess! However, I was a little sad to have missed my first day of my new job because the clinic was closed!

It was a very successful day though! We got up and went to eat Mexican with Mom, Daddy, and Corey because their power was still out from the night before. You can ALWAYS count on Mexican to be open. Mom was a little concerned that they wouldn't have enough servers, because we ran into that problem at Cracker Barrel, so Landon quickly explained that they probably all lived together anyway! Ha! I was also informed that there are no rules on snow days. Landon doesn't stop at stop signs. Daddy passes people on ice because they are going too slow. It's a fend for yourself kinda day.

After lunch, we came home and rested for a while until I started cleaning. Landon says I clean ALL the time. You can never be too clean! :) Keep in mind, we have had power through this entire storm! I had waited to put clothes in washer in fear of the power going out while there was clothes in there. I decided at this point it should be fine and we should be in the clear. WRONG. I dropped the first set of clothes in the washer with the water running and the lights go out. I kid you not, as soon as the clothes hit the water, bam! No power. Seriously!!!! Seriously!! The temperature started dropping very quickly seeing as how we have nothing. No heat, no nothing. We decided to head to Mrs. Nan and Mr. Brett's because they had power. At this point, Mom and Dad still do not have power. We spent the rest of the night with them until we got the message that our power was back on. We also found out that I am off work again tomorrow and Landon doesn't have go in until late unless the bridge is still bad. Yay for snow day #2!

The guys on Beale!


Sunday night around 8pm!

Yep, I still have my Valentine's door hanger up.

















My icicle!


Our road. It is a solid sheet of ice!


This drift was up to my knees!
