A week in Hothlanta

Yes, it snowed in Atlanta on Sunday (1/9/11) and a combination of temps remaining below freezing, overcast skies and poor government response (deja vu?) led to us being homebound for the whole week.  Needless to say, Spencer was incredibly confused.  I can't say that I blame him- school for one day and then 10 days off.  It's going to be like starting over.  Had to get out of here, so Friday Spencer and I took a quick trip to NOLA to see the other boys.  Pey's heart is in the right place when it comes to his brother, but sometimes his methods are lacking.  He just wanted to hug on Spence and tell him "I love you", but Spence can only take that for a little while, then he wants you to go away.
It warmed up enough on Saturday for Spence and his daddy to go spend a little time in the hot tub.  Spence really enjoyed it.  Mommy took that opportunity to take a long nap.  Not sure how long I slept.  Somewhere between 2 and 3 hours.  Boy did I need it.
Found out Friday that Pey made the playground's All-Star basketball league, so that will keep him busy for the next two weeks.
As for the title, those of you without any Star Wars knowledge won't get it.  Hothlanta is a play on the common Atlanta nickname of "Hotlanta" and the frozen planet of Hoth. (Empire Strikes back, I think?)
Can't wait for Spence to start school tomorrow!!!
