Weekend Highlights

So, those of you who have been following for awhile may remember this post, where I shared that on the way to work one day a deer came out of no where and ran straight into the side of our car.

Well, over the weekend we were headed out to our nephew's birthday party and in pretty much the exact same spot, we were rear-ended.

We were all fine.  We had stopped at a red light- had been there for probably 30 seconds or so, then boom.  Hit from behind.  NO. WAY.  What is with this stretch of road by our house?  It's like there is a curse on it/us! And it's not like we can avoid this stretch of road either - it's pretty much the only way I can get to work.  UGH!

Anyway, again - just as I was last time, I am very grateful and thankful that it wasn't any worse that it was.  Really, I don't think there was any damage.  We can't really tell yet because the car is covered in snow and salt, etc.  So tomorrow we'll probably take her through a car wash so we can see better if there was damage or not.


Other than that....

There aren't too many highlights.  I've been having fun curling my hair since I got it cut a few days ago.  I mentioned that I might share a picture, so I had the husband take one for me quick.

I've had this cut for a few months now and love it...I just had it cut a little shorter than normal...and I love it even more :)



We spent some time outside this weekend.  It was nice to get some fresh air.  We actually had some snow to play in!  This winter weather (or lack there of) has been some of the strangest of my life!  Last winter we had record snowfall amounts (we were on the national news!) but this winter...total opposite.

So it was a change to actually have snow!

Peaches and I made our 1st snowman...we made snow angels...we sat by the creek and threw snowballs in and watched them get carried away in the current.  It was great!

(please ignore my camo pants - seems I'm in need of some real snow pants 
so I don't have to use the husbands from his Air Force years!)


Happy Monday!
(back to work today...but I've planned well and we'll be watching GATTACA today and tomorrow.  One of my favorite days of the year is the discussion we have after and students realize all the genetics stuff they've been learning could be come their reality some day)
