Another Ice Storm

My snowboarding boys

Joshua didn't want to try snowboarding.

It seems like these ice storms are becoming a yearly tradition here in Tulsa. It's a tradition that I don't really care for too much. This time we actually had one in December and now one in January also. So, the schools have used all of their snow days already. Starting tomorrow Union will have to make up the days - probably at the end of the school year. Kenneth got to be home with us part of Monday and all day yesterday. That was nice! He went back to work today. The boys are starting to get bored and they're fighting more since they're tired of each other. Needless to say, I'm ready for them to go back to school. They should be able to go back on Friday. We decided to try out some sledding today. We needed to get out of the house for a little while. I wasn't sure if it would be too icy or not. Since Joshua's sledding accident a couple of years ago, I am a little more nervous about taking them sledding - especially when Kenneth can't go with us. It was more slick than last year when we went sledding. We went pretty fast. Caleb and Jacob tried out our new snowboard but it was hard to do because it was too icy. Pure snow would have worked better. They had fun though and it was good to be outside for a little while. Amazingly, it didn't even seem too terribly cold.
