Stuck inside

This weekend we were stuck in our house because of the ice storm going on outside. We couldn't even see outside!!!! That is all ice. Sometimes it was hard seeing Lily to let her in through the door! Also, everywhere was covered in ice. When the storm died down a bit, you could see the boys in our neighborhood playing hockey in the streets with thier hockey skates! Today there was a boy skating in our drive way (because our's was the only one uncovered), and he was really good. He was turning, and everything!

That is all ice. I felt sorry for all the trees, because they were COVERED in ice. dome branches on some trees were touching the ground! Our trees in front of the deck looked like someone had peeled them like a banana!

Then our power went out for about an hour and a half. But we got it back and we are okay now. The funny thing was that during the day it never got below 20 degrees! Imagine that!!

Hi Elle! I loved that snowstorm! Wow! Your door looks like it is one of those windows you put in a bathroom to block sightseers

These pictures are great--what a freak of nature to have that thick ice everywhere! I think you took a really good picture of the arborvitae.
