Aubrey's birthday was at the tail end of the snowstorm. We pushed her party back to the evening in order to give the snow and ice time to melt. Our walkway was not safe, though, so we started shoveling and trying to break up the ice. It was slow going until I had the idea to pour hot water on the walkway. The temperature was above freezing at that point, and it worked! It took many trips of hot water, but we got it clear enough for grandparents to come to the party and not slip on their way in to the house.
The snow storm messed up plans for Aubrey's friends to celebrate with her, too, so we had her friends come the same night as the family party. Everyone else left, and the girls had a great time talking and laughing and just being their silly selves. God has brought some wonderful friends into Aubrey's life this year. Some of them are old friends who she was able to reconnect with, being at the same school and playing water polo together and some are new. We're thankful for the choices Aubrey is making and for the friends God has given her. Her freshman year is going well!
