Interesting Day

Well, this all happened before the goat chase, but I uploaded my blogs in the wrong order! Oh well! I had actually started this blog and then was feeling so lousy that I just saved it and went to bed. It was later in the day when the goat came around.

We had no school today because of all the ice that we got last night and this morning. Nathan, Sarah, Allen and I went outside to check things out. Allen and Nathan ended up playing a little catch with the football. Here is Nathan catching one of Allen's throws. Sarah brought Coal outside with her and walked him around. He absolutely loves the snow! He didn't seem to mind the ice either!

Ice pictures




Allen said we need to photo shop a little bird spreading salt on his front porch into this picture!


The tree beside our house on the school property that started loosing branches. In the next blog you will be able to see where they later came out and put orange cones around the tree because it was getting so bad with fallen limbs.




Our poor arborvitae, not sure if it will make it or not. The Nipsco man will be happy though. We put this tree here to hide the meters, but the Nipsco man didn't like it too much because now he has to go behind it to read the meter!


ice on the pine tree




Hammie was spoiled today with a not just some nuts to eat, but she got a peanut butter and honey sandwich too!


Allen, not liking that I took his picture.....



so he grabbed the camera and snapped one of me! And to be fair, since I posted his pic, I guess I should post mine too!

You really did have some nice ice. We missed it... because we weren't home. :) Heard it was a wild one, though.

Looks like you had lovely Christmas days and times with family.
