wait, we cant forget the SNOW in texas! DEC 10, 2008

so, it SNOWED in texas!  yes, first time since dec 24, 2004 when justin was not even one!  It started snowing as i was walking to my car in the parking lot after work, and continually got harder- and was even sticking to the grass- that never happens in texas!  if it was snowing on the east coast, i would have been annoyed, but since it was in texas, i liked it- hehe.

of course on the snow day, my expedition decided it did not like snow, and started acting up, and as i drove home, one by one the lights, radio, clock and ac went out- i got worried so jeremy told me to pull off and turn the car off and then back on-so, i pulled off at the community college on my way home, and turned it off- and... it wouldnt start back up!!!  so, i sat, freezing in my car (bc i couldnt turn it on to turn the heat on) and waited for jeremy to come meet me- he was going to jump it... well, he got there, and someone had parked next to me, so he couldnt get close enough to jump it- so we called AAA.  we had fun while we waited -at least we were in the heat of his truck! but i was really upset that i was not home taking pictures of the kids in the snow, this only happens every few years!    anyway, AAA came after about an hour, jumped it, and we drove it to firestone automotive.  they kept it overnight, ran all kinds of tests on it the next morning- for the battery, electrical system, etc..and found nothing wrong with it!  my car must just not like snow!

luckily, when i got home, even though it was dark, there was still snow on the ground and a few flurries left, so i got a few pictures - brittany was a party pooper and said 'i've seen snow before!' and didnt come outside with us to play..
