Ice Storm

 Last week we had an ice storm and a lot of the city was shut down.  The kids didn't have school from Tuesday - Friday.   

The ice accumulation made trees break and cause a lot of damage.  Many people were out of electricity for days. 

We were lucky and didn't lose power.

Like most of the neighborhood, we lost a lot of very big branches on our trees. 

Here are some pictures from last week.

Noah's Half Marathon, Parker, West Palm Beach

 On January 22, Noah ran his first half marathon.  We are so proud of him. He got a great time too - under 2 hours! His official chip time was 01:56:53 .  He met his school group at the start and ran with his friend, Jackson the whole time.

We have a new foster dog, Parker.  He's sweet and cuddly.  He's black, but looks just like a golden retriever.  He will hopefully be getting adopted in a few days.

Also, we all went to the RBI fundraiser event.  Morry and I were invited by the Mantis and the boys volunteered. 

Over the weekend Grandma/Mom and I went to West Palm Beach to visit Maureen and Doug.  We had a very nice time.

Yesterday, Austin started getting a cold, winter storm.  We are lucky we were able to get home.   Today and tomorrow schools are canceled.  

I taught my classes over Zoom.

Here are some pictures from the last few weeks.
