More About The Snow

We played more in the snow today.

We were very confused by the weather forcast last night, which had a forcast of 21 degrees for a high and possible rain and snow for last night and today. We did get a little freezing rain, just enough to give us an 1/8 of an inch of crusty ice in between the layers of snow. Yesterday and today were pretty treacherous even in town. Here, we have about a foot.

So, I still haven't made it to do Christmas shopping. My plan didn't work with that. Luckily, if push comes to shove, I have enough of the kid's Christmas shopping done to make due. And, my husband would be very forgiving. They are, after all, forcasting snow through Christmas.

Here are some pictures from today. Enjoy.

Mariah & Rachel sledding. I love how Rachel leans back into Mariah. I especially love it because Rachel is such a stubborn, independent one that doesn't much show that kind of emotion normally.
