IT'S SNOWING!!! It is April 7th, 2007 in Belton, Texas, and it is SNOWING! IT IS APRIL DANG IT! What in the world happened. Red said it is hell freezing over. Yep, well hell is freezing over in an easter basket. Goodness!
Today was supposed to be the Easter Egg Hunt at UMHB for the little ones. Red and I were going to take Munchkin because it was going to be her first egg hunt. Well for some strange reason, we woke up with it being 40 degrees outside and raining and sleeting with the occasional snowflake. THIS IS TEXAS FOR GOODNESS SAKE, AND it is APRIL! lol. I seriously thought things couldn't get much more interesting or weird today. NOPE! Completely wrong.
We finished with the Easter Egg Hunt, which was moved to the Church gym, due to weather conditions, and as we were leaving the church, it was sleeting pretty hard. Sleeting?!?!? At this point, Red and I looked at each other in amazement, like, "What in the world is going on here?" So we went to Walmart, grabbed the most sensible and acceptable lunch for this type of weather, Beef Stew. Yum, something hot and just settled us all for a nice warm nap. MMMM.

After naps, Red, Paige, Munchkin, Harold, Suzanne and I went to see "Meeting the Robinsons" tonight in Temple. Talk about a great movie. Red and I both looked at each other and said, "oh yeah, definitely buying this one too!"
Well, after the movie, Munchkin decided to seriously warm up to Paige. I mean, she had him hold her, she laid her head on his shoulder, she rubbed her nose on his cheek, she hugged him, she laughed, she played with him. Yep, it is safe to say, Munchkin has Paige wrapped around her little two inch finger. Well, as soon as we walked out of the movie theatre, the Easter Bunny was sitting in his big green plush chair taking photographs with little kids, so of course, Paige took Munchkin to see him and take pictures. It was so cute. Red and I just stood there admiring and awwing about how adorable those two looked together. They just looked like they belonged together. How absolutely adorable. They defnitely look like they fit together. He was so good with her and you can tell she adores him. What a nice fit. Red looked like she was going to collapse from how much of today was a God thing. God revealed so much to her today about Paige. They suite each other so much and I pray God blesses their friendship and if He wills it, their relationship.


Well, we walked outside, and OH MY GOODNESS it is just pouring snow. I don't mean the little snow flakes, like huge honkin snow flakes. The entire grounde was at least an inch or two deep of snow, my car covered in 2 inches of snow. Harold had to get out and use his sleeve to get it off of my windsheild and other windows because I couldn't see out anywhere. lol. Well as Harold and I discuss our tactical plan of rolling up as many snowballs before Red, Paige and Munchkin got home it started snowing even harder. When Texans are not used to this type of weather and freak out if one snowflake hits the ground, yep, the road is a dangerous place to be since they don't know how to drive in it. We finally got home, and hurried as fast as possible balling up snowballs and stacking them before the rest of them got home. We had such a blast. Our hands were frozen, our heads were covered in snow, etc. I had so much fun. Finally, Paige, Red and Munchkin pulled into the driveway and Harold and I just ambushed them. IT WAS AWESOME!! We, meaning Harold and I, just pelted Red and Paige. It was awesome. We all had a blast just throwing snow balls at each other, laughing and have just a wonderful time. Munchkin even made her first Snow Angel.
What a great day. Even from all of that fun, Harold, Suzanne, Me and Munchkin all ran inside from frozen hands and wet bodies from all of that snow. Well I walked by the front door and witnessed the moment that Paige grabbed Regina to kiss her. How CUTE!!! It was so sweet that after all of that fun, all that adrenaline pumping, she got a snowy kiss. Lucky her. At least someone got something. But seeing them kiss and have their incredibly sweet moment, made me miss Zac even more than I already do, and it made my heart ache. He'll be home tomorrow. It is so hard to believe we are going to married in 27 days. LORD, please bring it quickly and bless these days before our wedding, on our wedding day and the many days to come. Thank you so much for this beautiful weather, the wonderful snow, the cool nights and the fantastic day of fun and fellowship with our family and friends. Please keep those that are traveling safe and bless us tomorrow as we remember and praise the rising of your son Jesus.
In your His precious name, AMEN!! Good night world, and Happy Easter!
