SNOW DAY!!!

The girls and left the house today for the teenagers first behind the wheel training not knowing that we would come home to a BLIZZARD!!! (ok maybe not a real blizzard, but it was to me) We were totally caught off guard. My mom had called as we were headed home with a weather update and let us know we needed to get home ASAP!! It was getting bad. No problem right? I have ALL WHEEL DRIVE, I can do it, (even though I have never driven in the snow, the hubby always drives). So off we go up our crazy mountain road (12 miles to be exact) and no problem, I am really doing this. We get to the top of our street to go home and I'm now watching cars slide all over the place but the car in front of me just went down our hill with ease. So I go for it and then we begin to SLIDE and then WHAM!!!!!!! We are in a DITCH!! I drive my car into a DITCH!!!!! Holy Crap. REALLY. Then what do you do? Make sure the girls are ok (they are, no one was hurt in the making of this crazy story). Call someone, if I had cell service. Wait for some stranger to come a bail out the stupid woman driver that drove into a ditch? No my WONDERWOMAN of a daughter decides she needs to walk the 1 mile home uphill in the snow to call my dad. She saved the day... Daddy came to pull me out and make sure I got home safe. Thank you daddy (and mom too, she came for moral support). I dont know what I would have done if my parents didnt live a few min. away (you know with the hubby out of town this week.) So here we are all warm at home with our hot chocolate and a chick flick. I think we are taking the day off tomorrow, no work, no school. We deserve it right. (that's not really my car but it's close)

I DID IT...I DID IT!!!

Well folks, its official...watch out for me on the road everyone, because i finally passed my permit test!!! After several attempt (3 to be exact) and failing two of those three times, i finally managed to pass it with flying colors! i only missed one!!! Now all i have to do is take one 'behind the wheel' lesson and it's the driver seat for me!!!

on an equally exciting note... THE STEELERS WON THE SUPER BOWL!!! That's right...everyone doubted me at school but, no...once again the rightful team won and the Cardinals remain known as the team who has never won a Super Bowl : - ) lol

peace for now

LETS GO STEELERS!!!!

We are HUGE Steeler fans here at the Edwards home, and are looking forward to the game today. We have invited a few people over to BBQ and watch the game. I think my favorite part of the game has to be the commercials. But lately I have been a little disappointed in them. If you are going to pay that much $$$$$ to air your product on the Superbowl it better be Emmy worthy, don't you think? And whats up with this 3D thing at the end of the 2nd quarter? My 6 year old is super excited for that!! My crazy hubby didn't think they would even get this far this year and is pleasantly surprised that they did. Lets just hope really hard that they WIN today so the rest of our day isn't grumpy. The last time the Steelers were in the Superbowl they won and it was on my birthday so that was fun, I guess. Hope your Superbowl day is fun! Eat lots of good food and enjoy the company around you. Wish us luck!! LETS GO STEELERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
