ice storm

This might have been one of the most memorable christmas breaks ever. These are pictures from an ice storm that left my house without power for almost 4 days. I did get some good pictures though :) I love how the sun is reflecting off the ice and making the branches brighter. I took these pictures first thing the morning after the storm so some of the snow had not melted. In the first picture I love how you can see the difference between the ice that the sun has reached, and the snow that is still white from the cold. 

in the snow

This picture was taken last winter when we were out sledding. My favorite part of this picture are her pink cheeks! and that beautiful smile.

built-up snow

More Snow! This tree is in my grandparents back yard. When it shows the snow builds up on the branches it is so pretty.
