Snowiest Day in History for Dallas

Look at all the snow as it fell. It was really coming down and has not stopped all day!

Scooter loved chasing snow balls. Silly Dog:} Please excuse my video skills. It is hard to video, hold the dog leash, and make and throw snow balls. We had a fun day!

Playing in the Snow

No Kidding!

This morning about 5 am

Jon waiting for the bus. Only those that can afford to replace their cars drive in these conditions.

Scooter loves the snow! She likes to chase snow balls.

Don't eat the yellow snow:)

SNOW!

Well Jon got me up this morning saying that it was snowing. Like a little kid on Christmas day I jumped out of bed to check it out. Yes don't we look great at 4:30 AM! And that white blob in front is a huge snowflake. I say it is a TEXAS size snowflake.

PICTURE SHOW - This is what we have been up to

Many trips back to Houston for Thanksgiving, Graduation, and Christmas. Scooter is ready to get on the Road Again. She is quite the traveling dog.

We Got Snow!!!

We got snow this morning. It stuck in the grass but not on the roads. It was a nice thing to see to help start off our morning. We are forecasted to get more snow on Friday.

Since our last posting, Tina and I went to Texas Motor Speedway in Fort Worth with her parents to see the Dickies 500. We had a lot of fun at the all day event.

How We Spent Our October 31st

Tina and I signed up for a 5k race in Frisco that we ended up doing without training. The race temperature was about 45 degrees, which most runners would say is good weather. We both finished the race in under one hour (walked pretty much all of it). Tina used the last bit of energy she had to run and get to the finish line before me. After the race, we drove to Tyler, TX where Tina's parents were camping. It was a good two hour drive to get to Tyler from our apartment. We hung out and enjoyed the weather. After having some good homemade burgers and watching Tina and her mom jumping on a Blob Balloon, it was time to go since we already had a long day.

Hope everybody had a Happy Halloween.

The Heat Is On

Fall is here and with the low tonight forecasted to be 43, we have decided we need to run the heater to get the chill out of the apartment. We aren't forecasted to see 80 degrees for awhile, hopefully not until April 2010.

A lot of things have happened since Tina's September posting. Tina finished her first placement as Student Teacher. She had three successful observations from a TWU representative. She is now at her second placement (last one) which emphasizes the ESL aspect of her degree. Tina received a letter from SHSU saying that her hard work has paid off and she will being graduating this December "MAGNA CUM LAUDE!" Congratulations to her for the hard work and late nights to achieve this. I had my annual review at work this past week. I can't believe that it has almost been one year since we relocated to Dallas from Houston.

The most important thing that happened was that we celebrated our 7th Anniversary.

Here is a picture of our nephew Braedon from our recent trip back to Houston.
