We woke up to sleet and freezing rain this morning. This ice storm had been hyped up all week and you just never know if what they forecast is really going to happen.
So when the kids woke up this morning, they were so happy to see snow! They couldn't wait to build a snowman. I had to bring down their hopes a bit by letting them know it was sleet and ice-not snow.
But you know what? Jax didn't mind at all that is was ice. In fact, he enjoyed sliding around and hunting for big icicles.
The kids begged that Justin and I go out, so we promised we would after lunch. But brrr....it was so cold! Ice was everywhere.
My poor plants:
The swingset:
And the trees-boy were the tree branches heavy with ice!
And poor Julie. She wanted to play outside. She wanted to like the ice and enjoy it like Jaxson did. But it was just too cold and too wet. And when her boots somehow got ice in them and her mittens were a little wet-she gave up and went inside where it was warm. I don't blame her cause I followed along right after her!
