Ice, Ice Baby!
Yes, yes, yes...we've all heard about the horrific ice storm that hit the Midwest. I just wanted to put all concerns at ease as our family has suffered no severe damages due to the horrific weather. We were released from school at 1:00 on Friday and did not attempt to leave our home until Monday. Our driveway, lawn, and nearby street were a solid sheet of ice. Had we had ice skates we could pretended it was one big ice skating rink. My first attempt at getting the Explorer out of the drive was very scary. I came close to sliding into both the house and Clint's truck, even in 4 X 4 high. I was stir crazy and told Clint I would be the one to go to the store. It is not a situation I will put myself in again. Nonetheless, we have been blessed to have power the whole time and as I said, no damage to the house or vehicles. We wouldn't have minded another day off from school but were not so lucky. Hope everyone else out there are safe and sound as well!

Alisha,
Hello, it's Heather (Rodeffer) Wood from CHS. It's great to see your new addition to the family. I got to your site from Sara (Chase) Wood's blog. I have enjoyed it greatly and will be visiting again. Glad to hear all is okay with you and your family.
Hi Heather! I have checked out your blog through Sara's blog as well! You have a beautiful family! It is good to see that you get to stay at home with the little ones. Hope to see you back soon!
I'm glad you are safe and didn't try to get out after your scary attempt! Even with SUV's sometimes it's not safe!
Whoa!! That sounds pretty scary--We're thankful you are all safe and had power thru' it all--I remember some of those ice storms and no power for hours and days even at times!! I sure don't miss driving on the ice!! But I don't even like driving on snow packed roads!! Sitting in my easy chair and looking at the snow is all the adventure I want!! Hope the ice is about gone and no more--b-r-r-r-!!
