Today is Orion's 3rd birthday. It seems like only yesterday that Hannah and Phil found out that they were expecting him. They had waited for so long for that to happen and they were ecstatic - and so was everyone in the family. When he was blessed Joey and Carlie, Gideon, Glory, Scarlett, Levi, Felicia, Rich and I were able to come....Wanda, Robert, Joseph, Beka, Rachel, Mary, Ben, Sam, and Ruth graciously welcomed us at their home for the big event. Orion's Grandma and Grandpa Mobley weren't able to be there for the blessing (although I am sure that they wanted to be)but his Grandma came for his birth. When he was just a little guy I remember loving his cute, very red cheeks and sparkling "chinese" eyes. He would disolve into gales of laughter when he was tickled and he still does. Today he is handsome, smart and curious. He has a very sweet and kind disposition - but is becoming a little bit of a daredevil too. He loves trains, cars, dinosaurs, animals, books, playgrounds, and his family. Happy birthday!
Today I got my hair cut! It feels soooooo good! I hadn't had it done since October when I was at Wanda's and I had been feeling very shaggy - and not in a Farrah Fawcett way either! Anyway - I love it and am so glad that there are people that like doing hair! My mom used to say that if your hair was done then you felt good all over - no matter what else was happening. There is so much truth to that.
I met Rich and we went to lunch at the new IHOP - it wasn't very good. But the company was spectacular. I ran errands afterwards and then picked him up and thought that we'd go to a movie but we didn't do that either.
We are experiencing a snow storm. The weather forecasters have been predicting a terrible one and everyone's on edge here. Schools have been closed, government offices, banks, daycares, etc. too. You would think they were expecting 3 ft! But I have to keep remembering that they don't have the plows and things here to help in the commutes and that not everyone lives in the cities. Our Stake President has called for the priesthood to check on everyone. That is a good thing. Rich is supposed to take his Deacons to the shooting range tomorrow - don't think that's happening. We'll see.
Cherstin and Dan are snowed in with about 6 inches and an 1+ of ice - their church has been cancelled. I wonder what our ward will do if it gets any worse tomorrow. I like being snowed in - it is cozy and warm and feels good to have no place to go.
