*Sleet *Ice* Snow*

We have had a crazy week of winter weather! A storm blew in early Tuesday morning with sleet and then ice and a little snow which meant no work for me. Ethan and I spent the day inside because the wind was blowing like crazy and temperatures were in the low teens! Things didn't warm up any for Wednesday and nothing melted so I was home for another day, and we still didn't venture out because it was mostly ice. Needless to say, after 48 hours of not leaving the house I was getting cabin fever!! Thursday I braved the road and went into the office. I only saw 3 patients for the entire day but I was also able make a trip to Walmart to restock on milk, eggs, bread, and MOST important Diet Coke!! This morning we woke up to several inches of snow!! It was really pretty to look out and see everything blanketed in white. Luckily our office decided to stay closed for the day, so Ethan and I got to enjoy the morning playing in the snow.

Bundled up and ready to head outside.



Here's a video of Ethan and Hondo checking out the snow!


Playing on the Snow Fort.




Ethan helped me gather up some firewood so we could stay plenty warm!


As I'm finishing up this blog the sun is out and we've actually hit 32 degrees!! The snow is glistening and starting to melt so maybe we will eventually defrost, but for now we'll enjoy the winter wonderland.
