On our way home from Missouri we were hearing reports of a winter storm coming through. Travel was restricted from Albuquerque, through Amarillo, and to Oklahoma City and beyond. We made it into OK city on Tuesday, just before the storm, and were able to be "snowed in" with Tony's sister, Nanci:
Tony had not seen her in 8 years! Don't they look alike?
She lives in OK with her kiddos:
Cecelia
and Adrian.
Wednesday was really cold and snowy, with wind chills of -15 degrees. The freeway looked like this:
Thank goodness we were not traveling that day! Instead we were fed homemade enchiladas for lunch, homemade gorditas for dinner (believe me these are nothing like taco bell!), and entertained by Nanci's grandkids Alejandra:
And Audrina:
They instantly took to me, Tony, not so much!
and here is just a fun picture of me by a huge pile of snow, brrr!
By Thursday there were still warning of dangerously cold temperatures with the windchill, but the roads were clear so off we are on our way home again.
