and then it turned to ice...

The snow was beautiful and then came the freezing rain. It turned everything icy. Then the sun came out and started to melt everything but it refroze over night creating an ice rink in our front and back yard. It was entertaining watching Rusty slip and slide all over. He even tried to pry one of his toys out of the frozen ice without much success while Mike and I laughed our heads off. Ice got old. Driving was dangerous and Jen could not make it back up the driveway on several occasions after work in her car. Love the snow, hate the ice.

First Snow!

We woke up early this morning to a white blanket of snow! It was sooo beautiful! We strapped on a snow gear and headed out out to play. This was Rusty's first time even seeing snow. He really liked it, as you can tell. Our neighbors built a snowman and Jen made a snow angel in the front yard. Mike pelted Jen with snowballs. We sat by the fire with the blinds open and drank hot chocolate and read all day. It was so relaxing.
