The kids and I went out to the pasture to see how frozen the little pond had gotten with all this freezing weather we are having.
Check out McKenzie (the dog) in this picture above. She is so funny! Just having a grand ole' time with her kids!!
It's been so beautiful!
Frosty, cold mornings. The afternoons are barely getting above freezing and everything is crisp and there is a definite nip in the air.
The ice was only about 1/2 inch thick. Surely no ice skating! But the kids had a great time picking up big chunks of it and skimming it across the pond. It sounds like glass shattering!The air smells delightfully smoky from all the woodstoves warming up the homes throughout the valley.
I love that smell!!
A little pink snowangel. Rosy cheeks and cold nose!
Bear... in an ever thoughtful mood.
There's McKenzie again. Waiting for Kaycie to toss some more ice for her to chase.The kids are praying for snow. The weather reports are saying maybe by the end of the week there may be some..... Pray harder, kids!
I think that a snow day is due!!!
How sweet and precious they all are! Even the puppy dog! My children loved snow also. We don't get much in Texas, so it was always a treat when we did. Blessings,Kathleen
ReplyDeleteGreat pics! Looks like such a fun place to live!
ReplyDeleteHasn't this cold weather been amazing? The girls finally skated on the big pond the last two days. For years my big girls skated on the big pond and then we had a couple of years of no skating and then the "little" girls began skating again only on the little ponds, well the cold snap has brought the big pond back into skating world and the girls really enjoyed it.
ReplyDeleteStay warm!
How much fun does that look!
