snow? what snow?

what happens when you go to your nephew's championship football game in the middle of a blizzard and you haven't dressed appropriately for it? you open your trunk and layer with whatever clothes and blankets you can find!

and then you wait in the car with 6 adults and 3 children until after the first quarter has begun.


3 adults, 1 child


1 more adult


2 more adults


2 more children
makes for a very foggy-windowed-car


here is the list of protective clothing / layers we are each wearing.

me: a long sleeved shirt, a sweatshirt, a down coat, another sweatshirt, a beanie, on hood of a sweatshirt, another hood of a sweatshirt, gloves, and a blanket covering it all

hubby-bubby: a t-shirt, my sweatshirt, his light-weight jacket, one winnie the pooh
blanket on top of it all

and don't forget the broken umbrella - it helped a ton


poor kids - they must be freezing!


but don't lose hope!
the nephew's team went on to win 26 to 0 - a totally undefeated season!
way to go!

I guess i shouldn't mention that when i watched my son's soccer game last Saturday, i was wearing short sleeves and had to put up my beach umbrella to keep the sun from blazing down on us...
