We woke up this morning to ice and freezing rain instead of snow. The IA State Patrol is recommending no travel all day. Which on any other Saturday would be a blessing to me not to have to run off and be gone all day. BUT today was supposed to be Isaiah's Christmas party. Every year the local Shrine Temple throws a nice Christmas party for all the "hospital kids" and their families. Isaiah loves this time he starts talking about it as soon as the invitation comes in the mail and doesn't stop for at least week After. We play games, get to play with and talk to all the clowns, Santa and Mrs. Clause come to visit and they always serve lunch. All the hospital kids get a special gift, but the siblings also get prizes and usually a stuffed animal too. Sadly the party was cancelled. And they wont be rescheduling it this year. When we told Isaiah, he cried...sorry son I know how disappointed you are.
Today was also the day I was supposed to go shopping with the girls from GNO. We were going to meet at 3 and shop until dinner and shop some more. I always look forward to this GNO. The company and conversation is always nice and the best part is it is just us girls. No kids, not even husbands are allowed. Sometimes us girls just need girl time and good conversation, right?
So, we are stuck indoors all day. We have taken advantage of the time and played games with the kids, I baked lots of goodies (in my mind) because I was not as smart as Tammy, she bought all her ingredients so she had a back-up plan. Dominique is stuck in town at Alex's house, I am sure he does not feel stuck but he is.
Hopefully the ice will melt away and not damage our power lines. Everyone stay safe, warm and cozy out there!
