Ice Storm

Two weeks ago or so we were hit with the huge ice and snowstorm that was all over the news. It was awesome! Schools and businesses were shut down so we all just hung out for a fews days watching movies in our pajamas. Well, we were lucky. Tons of people were without power for days, and there was some damage from the ice. Everything looked like it was make of glass. It was so beautiful! Here are some pictures.

The top of this poor little tree couldn't handle the weight of the ice.


This tree in my parents yard also broke because of the ice.

Ice about an inch thick covered everything. It was so thick on the grass that in most places it would hold Sam's weight when he walked on it. It was amazing!

Our car was totally encased in ice. Sam spent a lot of time trying to break it free.

Here is one little girl excited to go out and play in it all! She loved picking up the sheets of ice and throwing them down so they would shatter everywhere. Luckily she has a wonderful dad who went out with her every day to play.
