snow, snow, ice and more snow!

We have been hit by more of what they are calling the "arctic blast". Just when it stops snowing, everything turns to ice and then it snows again! Church was canceled for the second week in a row & we are all getting a little stir crazy! Yesterday it snowed, then rain, which turned into ice. Then it snowed some more, covering up the ice. We haven't left the house because the roads are bad, but we have been out to play in it. It is strange, you can walk on the snow and it is ice underneath, so you don't really ever touch the ground. We wanted to take Kimmie sledding, but didn't want to go far, so we improvised in our front yard. We got a rope and Seth pulled us around:) Here are some pictures taken today:

Kimmie's cute little red nose:)

The dish went out, so Seth went on the roof & cleaned it off
