Sledding on ice.

My brother took my daughter sledding on the hill across from my mom's house. Here are the pictures. They are from far away due to my ankle. I got hurt a few years ago and my tendons and ligaments are like over stretched rubber bands. I also fall alot on ice. I was really jealous cause it looked like so much fun.

The red is a sheet of plexiglass. They said it was way funner than the sled. It went a lot faster.

My brother as he slipped and fell trying to get on the sled.

Blake pushing H and he slipped again.

Sorry for the tree limbs in the pictures. As I was packing for the storm I forgot to grab my winter coat so I had to take the pictures from the second floor of my mom's house through the window.

Slumber parties and Ice storms

With the warnings of huge ice storms where I live. We have packed up and headed to my Mom's. She has a generator and we have a lovely house but I have a magnolia tree, and unfortunately there is the main power line that runs through that tree and I really didn't want to wake up to no power and having a difficult time tying to get anywhere with icy roads. We also do not have a generator

So in the meantime we are playing the Wii, reading books. and watching movies. Sorry about a picture from Christmas but of course I didn't grab the camera either.

My brave hubby decided to man our house in case we lost power he could shut off water mains and such. What I do regret in my hurry to pack us up and ship us out was to grab my sewing machine. This being home and knowing I could get a lot done but nothing to work on sucks.
