Let it snow, let it snow.... ya right we are in Oklahoma and we get ICE here

We started to get the ice on Monday afternoon... we decided to stay inside and not go anywhere. But OF CORSE those plans don't ever seem to stick. I was running upto AtWoods to get some ice melt and i received a phone call from my dad that he fell at work on the ice and wanted me to come and pick him up in Claremore. Cooper and i made the trek there to get him. He was fine but a little shook up and didn't want to drive with the crazies out driving in Tulsa. So to make a long story short Cooper and i were in the car on Tuesday for 3 1/2 hours. It was BAD! LOL...

So DAY 2: Tuesday...

Todd didn't have school so we decided to drive out to get dad's car.  Broken Arrow was ICED over

But if you drove slow it wasn't too bad. Todd thought that if we went early enough we wouldn't get in to too much trouble. Well getting up to Claremore wasn't too bad. BUT it was off and on raining and sleeting the whole way. Thus over time the roads turned to CRAP! This is me driving on the highway...

I was going a whopping 25MPH so no harm to snap a quick pic... :)

I was slipping and sliding all over the place! By the time we made it back to Tulsa and then back to broken arrow the roads were HORRIBLE. The highways didn't even have ruts to drive in. But we made it home safe and sound!

Day 3: Wednesday.... Still no school for Todd

We thought it was time to take cooper out to play in the snow/ice. We bundled him up with 3 pairs of pants, 2 shirts and 2 pairs of socks.

He LOVED it... Sledding down the driveway was the best!

But it wouldn't be right unless cooper MOWED the snow :)
