The rest of February 2021

Annual Mom/Son, Dad/Daughter Valentine's Date Night (global pandemic style). James and Emery got Panda Express take-out and then watched Dolittle upstairs and Case and I ate at Sonic and then watched Dolittle downstairs.  





The kitties just being cute, snuggling during this stupidly cold weather

Round one of snow came on Sunday, so we had a little fun with friends at Harding Academy. 














The evening concluded with dinner at the Butler's (with their pet snake)

Monday was President's Day (and a day off from school already) and that's when the BIG snow came! 5.5 inches. Biggest now in 30 years in Memphis! Here are some pics of day one and two of snow fun in Brierwood! 














Emery and Kaitlyn making snow balls with whip cream and chocolate sauce. 






We introduced CJ to snow cream ... he approved. 

The next few days brought a lot more snow fun and sledding. Pics from days three and four of snow fun in Brierwood! 



Tyler, Case, Caroline, Griffin, Sadie and Emery




And then on Wednesday night, we got four more inches, bringing the grand total to 9" of snow! Definitely an all-time record for Memphis. 














We literally shut it down at dark every night. These kids (and adults) just couldn't get enough. I think we all wanted to make the most of it, just in case it's another 30 years before it happens again.
