Everything is iced over here in North Texas. School was canceled today and already has been canceled for tomorrow. We are literally iced in at our house. Thankfully, I did the grocery shopping on Sunday. We have plenty of food and warm things to eat.
The kids begged me to take them out to play on the ice so I obliged and we walked to a spot where they could sled without ending up in the street. In the pictures, it appears that they are sledding on grass, but don't be fooled. Under that grass is solid ice! It rained and poured last night and then the temperatures dropped drastically and quickly which caused ice, ice and more ice.
Today both Gina and I were not able to get out to work, and it is anticipated that we won't be able to go tomorrow either. Unless the temps increase enough for the ice to melt, that is. Right now it is about 18 degrees outside which is HIGHLY unusual in this part of Texas.
Here are some pics of the kids having fun which is really what makes me smile!
Sophia has started using my old laptop to do reading tutorials/games. She seems to really enjoy it. We are praying that this will increase her reading skills!!!
