Hey guys and welcome to the Moms and Mysteries podcast, a true crime podcast featuring myself, Mandy, and my dear friend Melissa. Hi, Melissa.

Hi, Mandy. How are you? I am doing well. I'm cold. Everyone's cold. You're cold.

The pets are cold. The kids are cold. We're all cold.

Yeah. Florida's still under snow. Yes. Parts of it. My mom keeps sending me pictures of like the daily.

I actually went to go visit her. Mandy knows this, but I went to visit my parents with my kids.

When we learned that there was going to be a Florida to snow, I didn't go until the morning of.

I wrote Mandy and was like, hey, I'm thinking of going up to visit my family. But at that time, they were predicting like eight to ten inches. So I was like, you can't be ten inches off, right? Like, there's going to be something. And I fully supported you going up there

and doing this. You absolutely did. Thank you. But I also, in the back of my mind, I was like,

she does realize that she's driving literally into a snowstorm to get there.

No. That was truly the best part because I text Mandy at one point when we stopped somewhere

and I was like, they're closing down the turn bike in a few hours. She's like, you're driving into a snowstorm. And so I did have to stay an extra day because we literally could not get out. That was a very weird feeling. Again, the weirdest thing ever, you text me that day and you're like, we're snowed in, so I can't make it back to Orlando area today. I'm like, what?

It was wild. It was, I think they ended up getting like four inches, but then parts of it froze and all kinds of stuff. But I was telling Mandy, too, it was the coolest thing ever because my dad's 70, my mom 65, sorry to shout out your ages on here. They won't listen.

But neither of them had ever seen snow in their entire life. I can't believe that.

My dad, I can definitely believe. My mom, he doesn't like to travel. My mom, not as much.

But yeah, they just, it was, it was like seeing kids see it. Like, really,

it was just, like, so magical to see adults, like, I don't know, opening in your mouth to have

snowflakes fall on it. And we went sledding because we had, like, the bottom of a, it was just all

homemade stuff that we were doing. But it was just, like, I it was just like, oh, my gosh, I'll have these members forever.

And my kids were there, of course.

So like them interacting.

I don't know.

It was just, I was like, we're snowed in.
