Snow/Ice Day(s)!

It is COLD in North Carolina!

Monday afternoon, there was a winter weather advisory, which in NC, you can never know how serious that will be.

The snow started and quickly turned to ice....

We had to take the dogs out to see the glazing-- and it was slippery!



It became clear that school would be canceled on Tuesday so we had Tricia and Tommy over for some cocktails and playing outside.  We went sledding on the road out in front of our house.  The boys thought it was amazing...


We woke up Tuesday morning to pretty much a solid sheet of ice.  Our driveway had a thick layer of ice on it.  Andy decided to make an ICE angel. 

Cal apparently decided to work on his modeling poses...? 


And Bruce did not know what to think!

We went back out into the road in front of our house for some sledding-- when it is icy like this, you can't really sled like you can on snow.  But they had a blast anyway!

All three of these guys had fun sledding!


Wednesday, schools were canceled too... the roads were all pretty much fine, but there were some back roads that were still slick. Wednesday afternoon, REAL snow started falling down and the boys were in AWE of it! These were the BIG thick flakes. 

Cal watched it fall out the window- it really was beautiful!
 School was canceled Thursday as well... it has been a long week home with the boys!!! I am pretty sure they will be able to go to school tomorrow... it is still freezing (currently 17 degrees!), but the roads are looking good!
