The Roby Family

At this point in the HVAC install there really isn’t much to show, but I guess when it’s all done there won’t be much to show.  Today the crew finished installing the second floor registers, attic ductwork and most of the HVAC unit itself.  Due to the rain today they couldn’t run the condenser & gas lines outside, but those will get done tomorrow.

We’re still on track to be have fresh, cool air pumping thru these brand new ducts by Friday night.  Keep your fingers crossed the rain holds off so the exterior work is finished in time!

The painters had to cancel today and will start bright & early tomorrow morning.  I can’t wait to see the transformation once this high traffic area is painted.

This weekend we received the most snow ever for this late in the year.  The week preceding was in the 70′s and the week following is predicted to be the same.  Our back yard measured snow as deep as 10″ and I couldn’t find a spot shallower than 6″!  It was amazing to watch soft, wet snow fall for 8+ hours in Tulsa.  Normally our snow is preceded & followed by ice, sleet, rain, hail, etc, but not this time.  Our local weathermen did drop a new term on us though, “Thundersnow.”  I am not sure if this is related to the new NBA down the t-pike or ’cause it actually thundered before it began to snow.  Either way it was fun to watch.

Unfortunately, Jenny & the boys were in OKC for a baby shower and missed out on the fun.  They arrived back in Tulsa about 3p on Sunday.  As soon as they pulled up Jacob jumped out and wanted to play in the snow.  By that time it was pretty crusty and wet.  Luckily I had the camera handy and was able to snap a few pictures of him running around in it before I snapped to my senses and got him inside to dry off and warm up.  Hopefully next time we will be able to build a fat snowman complete with a carrot nose.
