Winter Wonderland

Posted by Eric, Tara, Benjamin and Tarini | Posted in



We have been having some crazy weather here in Kentucky and we are trying to make the most of it. First we got almost an inch of ice and then we got several inches of snow on top of that. To make matters worse, over half a million people in Kentucky are without power. We have been lucky...in fact, my sister and her family are staying with us as they have no power. Our neighbors don't have power, a tree in their backyard took out the electric line to their house. I'm praying that it doesn't pull the transformer down any further and leave the whole block without power. Not to mention that the kids have had no school all week...we have major cabin fever to say the least. :)

All the while, Eric was in sunny, balmy Trinidad in the Caribbean for work. Lucky guy!

Love those rosy cheeks!



We have icicles to spare.


Sledding was a big hit with Benjamin and Tarini.


Tarini tried her hand at pulling Benjamin; she got about three feet :)



Tarini making her very first snow angel!





The view down our street


My poor, poor magnolias...they'd barely recovered from the ice storm in 2003. They lost a few feet off the tops then and I think they will again after all is said and done.


Some of the bazillion icicles hanging from our house.


My car looked like it was a popsicle :)
