Ice Storm Part 2

Ice Storm Part 2

After the ice, we got pounded with snow for most of the day

Second layer of ice

Kids played vet that afternoon

So on Wednesday, we woke up to MORE ice! The second wave came through Wednesday night. The winds were really bad, and there ended up being around 80,000 people without power. Our lights flickered several times Tuesday night, but we never lost power. Rachel woke up at 5:30 scared by the wind. It sounded like we were about to have a tornado. Thankfully, we had no trees down or limbs down. The base was closed again, so Chris stayed home. He had phone conferences to do, so he did that while we finished school. Wednesday night activities were canceled at church, and I couldn't get to the commissary again. Around lunch time, we headed to the bank to get the check cashed, and then stopped for lunch at Wendy's and ran into Kroger to pick up some meat for dinner that night. It was nice to get out if only for a little while. We saw many tree limbs and small trees down throughout our neighborhood, but the roads weren't bad. Needless to say, we are ready for things to get back to normal. Wed afternoon, the kids played so well together. I love days like this where I can see them just genuinely having fun. They decided to play vet with Rachel's vet set. Jason put on his doctor coat with a tie. He told me he was a smart doctor because he was wearing a tie. For over an hour, they played vet with Molly and Izzy and then started trying to sell me and Chris things so they could buy the cats. Very fun afternoon!!
