Out of boredom the other day I turned on talk radio. (Ah, this is what has been missing in my life - talk radio - the sarcasm, the drama!) Main discussion was, of course, "Blizzard 2011". This is the worst timing ever (you know on talk radio everything is the end of the world) for the state of Texas mostly because we're hosting the "big game" tomorrow, and we can't have bad weather. Tuesday and Wednesday this week were dreadfully cold and windy. We had rolling blackouts - not enough power for everyone running their little heaters full blast. Of course, some places are exempt from the blackouts....like hospitals and nursing homes and....Cowboys Stadium. (This made some people mad.) And....to top it all off, President Perry is out of town and no one knew where he was. (That would be the guv'nah.....who wears a derringer in his boot. I'm totally on his bandwagon. He wants to run for president....it's worked in the past (George W)). Anyway, speaking of the big game, it's too hard for me to pass up an opinion on this one, could there be a more boring matchup? If only there was some way they both could lose. Ha ha ha. (Okay, I take it back already, I shouldn't wish bad on people.....)

You do such a good job of posting pictures. I love them all! Give the little birthday girl a big fat kiss from her Aunt Tonia! Jody had a great idea the other day that we all fly down and knock on your door this morning and have a birthday party! Was a really great idea... Not really to feasible right now, but a great idea... XOXOXOXOXOXO
Wow, so YOU had a blizzard!! I'm not sure they would have let us off work for such a gigantic blizzard!! I would say that we had a "Texas-size" blizzard here! (And I did get the day off work). I loved all the pictures. I'll be looking for #1 and cake pictures soon!! Thanks for posting these!
Funny how WE get the Texas size blizzards..excited to receive the announcement. Waiting to see more birthday girl pictures. Keep up the great work keeping us 'involved' in your lives. Love it.
