We had a big winter storm in the beginning of February. We were forecasted to get an inch or 2 of ice followed by 8 inches of snow. Power outtages were a threat so we had to be prepared with firewood and food. Thankfully, we didn't get hit as badly as other surrounding areas, but we ended up with about 3/4 inch of ice and 4 inches of snow and NO power outtage. The ice was too dangerous to drive on so Denver got 2 1/2 days off from work! The kids ended up with 3 days off from school. It was nice for all the family to be stuck inside together, even though we did go a little stir crazy the first day.
The individual grass straws were coated with ice.
While plowing and playing outside, my hair turned to ice (it was misting and the mist on my hair froze.) It was fun to touch. It was much stronger than an extra hold hair spray.
During these cold, winter days, we've found much to do around the house. Taking cute pictures was one of them. He's growing so fast!
Legos are our friends. This tower is as tall as Sterling!
And another tower...
We are definitely ready for Spring. The ice is beautiful coated on all the trees, but we're ready for some outside play time!
