The storm delayed my surprise anniversary getaway, but we still went despite arriving home on Christmas day. We had zero company Christmas day anyway. The kids were all with other family this year.
Anyway, we stayed in a Bed & Breakfast, he had flowers, chocolates, and a cheese and meat board all arranged for us. What a guy!
Also, he bought me a new very warm coat you see in the photo, but I have to return it for a smaller size.
We returned home to no hot water. Everyone in the state was either battling no power, or no power and water, or pipes that had already burst.
We finally got all of our pipes cleared, and despite heat tape, it still froze with this treacherous weather.
With zero family to spend time with this Christmas, I made Mom's sour cream softies. The temperatures are slowly getting warmer, but so many people suffered damage to their homes with this storm. I'm glad it's over and warmer days are in the future.
