4th day without school for quinn allen brown!!!
so we woke up tuesday morning to find this much snow outside...
and that school was cancelled!!! we laughed and laughed thinking how silly these kentuckians are for cancelling school with only that much snow.
but little did we know what was about to come forth. see, there is something out here that they like to call "freezing rain". it is something that i have NEVER, in my entire life, experienced until now. it has turned everything into ice. we are living in an ice world! everyone's yards looked like ice skating rinks! quinn even tried to make a snow angel but couldn't break the ice to do it.
there are ice sickles on everything!
and then came the snow. wednesday we woke up to a winter wonderland and jumped for joy again because we knew he wouldn't have school again.
but the ice became too heavy for the tree branches to hold which caused trees and tree branches to fall all over town. we have woods right behind our house and if you stood outside and made no noise, you could here tree branches falling every 10 seconds. it has caused quite a bit of damage around the city and we even had a branch fall on our garage. luckily it didn't fall far enough to damage it.
also, the ice is becoming too heavy for the powerlines to hold so there are powerlines down all over the place. there are now 607.000 people in kentucky without power!!! i don't know how we are getting so lucky, but we had power with the last storm and we haven't lost it yet with this one. we are housing my brother and his roommate who lost their power and feeding dinner to all of our friends at night who aren't as fortunate to have power. since we do have power, we are loving life right now....especially quinn. no school for 4 days and we don't even know if they'll go back on monday. oh, and it is gorgeous outside. a true winter wonderland....probably for only those that have power i guess.
isn't it beautiful?! it's HUGE!!!
SIKE! just kidding! it's a mini one! just j-dogg's size!
he loved being outside and loved to stick his tongue out to catch snow flakes. it was hilarious! and i loved how his eyelashes would catch the snow flakes.
well, sorry for the extremely long post. i have been wanting to blog all week but couldn't get our computer to work, and now that it does i realized that i had too much to blog. so there ya have it, our snow week in a nutshell.

Hey Lexi! We've been wondering if you guys got caught in the ice storm! Thank goodness you still have power! The pics of Jayden in the snow are adorable, he has such long eyelashes! Looks like you guys are having tons of fun...I'm sure Quinn is loving the break from school.
What crazy weather! i'm glad that you guys still have power though! Jayden looks so cute out in the snow, glad you guys get to enjoy the time off that your hubby has!
what do you mean you don't know how you guys are so lucky? You married quinn and he has the most phenomenal luck I've ever witnessed (free car, free prepaid credit cards, etc...and the list goes on and on.
I'm going to have to agree with BRANDON - Quinn is the luckiest man I know! Jayden is so stinkin cute! Thanks for all the pictures Lex! Love and miss you guys! MOM
Wow...I can't believe all the ice and snow! At least you get to hang out with your husband you lucky duck! Good thing you can all cuddle up inside all warm...power is a wonderful thing! Hope you all de-thaw soon....
Oh my gosh, that looks SO COLD!!! I've got goosebumps just looking at your pictures! I'm glad that you've had power the whole time. Do you have a wood fireplace in your house? Well, Jayden looks like he is loving the weather - kids are so funny about not caring about the cold. Come visit us and thaw out!!! :)
So jayden is by far the cutest baby i've ever seen in my life.....have you guys thought about earning a little extra cash by having him as a baby model??
