Blizzard or No Blizzard

There has been a lot of hype today about a major blizzard that was going to hit the area. We were supposed to get hit at 5 PM and conditions were going to last until 8 AM or so - if I am remembering that correctly. It is now 11 PM and we have had a lot of wind and it is quite cold out (especially for a Florida boy that is not used to this kind of cold) but there has not been any snow. Last I saw the skies were clear. I know 3 kids that are not real happy about that as they have been waiting and praying for a big snow storm. They have loved the two little storms that have blown through thus far. As I mentioned in a previous blog I too love a good snow. I love the first site of it in the morning when it is untouched. So peaceful and bright. I really love getting out my snow shovel and throwing a little snow. I don't know why, just do. That has been the disappointing part of the first two storms for me, there wasn't anything to shovel. We will see if anything changes through the night. I don't mind if it passes, it will make for a better turkey bowl. Though I do not fear playing in the snow I would prefer a bit of a drier experience. Also hoping that roads stay clear for Heidi and her family making their return trip to Cedar City.

Speaking of Heidi and fam, they had another long day at the hospital. On her blog Heidi said Paige was not allowed to eat or drink all morning and had a bit of a hard time with that. The bone scan went well and looked good but Heidi will not have an official report until tomorrow. Tomorrow is also surgery day. We will have her in our thoughts and prayers and look forward to hearing about more tender mercies of the Lord.
