Icy weekend

We had another cold storm come through this last weekend. No snow, but plenty of freezing rain, sleet, and ice. Most everything was closed down on Friday, so Dave got the day off!

Every single branch, twig, and leaf was covered in ice. Icicles hung from Everything!


We probably looked like big desert-dorks marveling at it all!


I wish I had been able to get better pictures - these are just from our yard on Saturday. But the tree-lined roads were beautiful, especially Sunday morning. On our drive to church when the sun was out, everything sparkled like crystals! It was breath-taking!


We spent most of the weekend like this: Cozied up on the couch! Lazy but warm and happy!
