Snow and Ice

Jacob has not had school for two days. It is nice to have everyone home for a couple of days. Yesterday we got about 2 -3 inches of snow. The kids had a lot of fun out in it. They all enjoyed making snowballs and throwing them at each other. I am not a huge fan of snow so Daddy's job is to go out in the snow and I stay in and make the hot chocolate. This year I have an even better reason to stay in, Lucy. It stopped in the late afternoon and then in the evening started the freezing rain. We now have a layer of ice on top of all the snow. It is much better for sledding though.
