Winter Storm 2009

This morning we woke up to lots of ICE and no power!  Thankfully, we got our heat back after a couple of hours but there are still 200,000 still without power.  The temp won't get above freezing for a couple more days so fingers crossed for day 3 of no work/school!  :-9

our back yard




our mailbox
no grilling today!
...and then it started snowing


Dan attempted to clean off the car...
..until the scraper broke
he decided to throw an ice-ball at the window 
(note the snowball in the upper right of the pic!)

Then Daisy made yellow snow, it's even too cold for Daisy to pee in the grass 
(at least she made in down the steps) :)
