Ice Day #2

School was closed again today because of the weather, so I worked from home and let the kids have another carefree day!

it snowed quite a bit this morning

the wind was howling - there were gusts up to 30mph!

 we ventured out before lunch to play in the snow (and ice)

the kids had a snowball fight

 Reagan made a few snow angels

 then it was time to go sledding!

we moved to the neighbor's driveway for a little more incline

surveying the tracks

the sledding wasn't too good today, so we went on an icicle hunt!

 too bad Greg had to go in to work today!

 they thought sucking on the icicles was "the best thing ever"!

 Cooper was a Good Samaritan and shoveled the neighbor's sidewalk...but he didn't shovel his own!!

Ice, Ice Baby

School was cancelled today due to the ice and dusting of snow.  We got out and played for a little while this afternoon. 

the trees are so pretty when they're covered in ice

 testing out the ice

 made his 1st sledding run

 despite me telling him how nasty it was, he insisted on eating some ice

 Reagan loved breaking off the icicles 

 preparing for her first sledding run

 mom sledded with Cooper!

...and with Reagan!

 after sledding, we went on a walk around the neighborhood

 look at the huge icicle

 they loved getting the ice off of the neighbors trash cans

 more sledding
