Icy weather

The past few days the weathermen have been talking about the ice storm approaching. Some schools closed yesterday but not CISD where we live. Yesterday afternoon it started raining again and it was near freezing so we skipped skate night. The kids were disappointed but I didn't want to take a chance on driving in those conditions. This morning the overpass into The Woodlands was closed and there were several pile-ups on other overpasses south of here. The CISD schools were closed so I let the kids sleep in. There were icicles on the eaves of the house, the leaves and trees, patio furniture, etc. I picked some icicles and brought them inside for the kids. Adrian held his until it melted and Morgan ate hers. It is so cold and wet outside. At least if there was snow we could have a good time playing outside but it is only ice. Things should be back to normal tomorrow.
