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"!
 a snow angel from Cooper
 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

It's Gone

Cooper lost another tooth last night ~ he pulled it himself!  The Tooth Fairy rewarded him with $5 when he woke up this morning!
