Cold Found Me - I don't know how but it found me.


We had a little cold snap here. It kind of stinks that it is the end of March and we have to bundle up still. This is the plant hanger by our front door. We had to pull down the ice because as it melted it was freezing on our front step and my 3 year old fell and knocked his head.

Danny's car isn't in the garage so it was covered in ice. We tried to open the door but it was frozen shut. We did manage to free the handle.

The tire nozzle is completely covered in ice as was the tire. It is pretty neat because you can see water closer to the tire floating around under the ice.
This is the front light of Dan's car.

This is a shot of our front storm door. What is so funny about this picture is that the glass is clear. We do not have frosted glass that is all ice. We couldn't get it open. We had to go in and out through the garage.

The rest of these are some pretty pictures. I love how nature can be so destructive but so beautiful at the same time. The ice covered everything and the patterns and colors are amazing. I took the last three photos right outside on my street.

We have had some ice storms here, but not this year. Austin had hail and it knocked all of the leaves off of the trees. I will still come visit you.

Ahhh....the joys of freezing rain. We had snow in McKinney for about 45 mins last saturday. It was cool. But it has been some time since we had an ice storm. Not sure if it is over yet.....
One question...do we need to strip our vehicles of all ice before driving or is it okay to have the ice fly off the car at 65 miles per hour on the freeway??? hehehehe
