Such an eventful week...ok the last 3 weeks! I say that because we have been "homebound" more or less with sickness, if it wasn't one of the kids it was me and then this weekend it finally caught up with Mike...Gotta love the winter months!
Despite all the sickness we've tried to have fun...in the snow that is. About 2-3 weeks ago we got some snow, unfortunately it was only a few centimeters but none-the-less the kids enjoyed it and of course here in the South they cancel school.
Thursday night was expected to bring lots of snow but Mother Nature decided to delay it a little. Around 9 o'clock Friday morning it began and did not end until Saturday morning, giving us about 4 inches. It started as a beautiful snow fall but then turned into sleet and freezing rain. When the snow was at it's best Mike & A were able to go out and play for a little bit the rest of us were getting over the stomach bug. Fortunately Saturday Z and I were feeling well enough to go out and build a snowman....well the snow was frozen solid from the rain and because it was sooo cold it remained frozen and quite slick. Because of safety....church was even cancelled. That has happened to us twice now, once here and once in NC. Everything has a layer of ice around it, I tried to take some pictures of the tree branches. Although it is cold and we are stuck indoors it is really quite beautiful looking at everything being snow covered and white. It may not last long since the sun has decided to shine so it will only be a matter of time before it is melted and gone!

You're such a fun mom - I usually watch them play in the snow from my window and let daddy freeze his tail off. :) Cute, cute kids!!
