Snow Day!

We let out school early yesterday ahead of the snow (just in time), and after about an inch or so fell, school was called off for today.

The girls loved having enough snow for sledding! Also, having Ansley's BFF over for the day made it even more fun for them (and me too since they play well together and enterain each other pretty well).


It hasn't been above freezing for over a week, so our lake has frozen almost completely over. In the photo at right, much of the ice is snow-covered. The areas that appear to be water are actually more ice; only the patch at the left is open water. Since the lake has a river running through it, the moving water is keeping it from freezing solid (for now).

We're expecting below-freezing temps until Monday, so I don't know how soon this white stuff will go. It was fun today, but it's time for it to go!
