When we moved to South Carolina we were told it NEVER gets cold. They said to get rid of all snow gear. Well our first winter here the South experienced a HORRID ice storm. I have never seen anything like it. The weather became bitter cold and the trees started to crack from all the ice. Trees were snapping everywhere and taking out power lines. We lost power for 3 days and others were out for a week! Luckily we had gas fire place that kept our home nice and toasty. This is how we spent Valentines Day...
We even made a family valentines card...
The boys enjoyed playing in the snow but I wouldn't let them go out there for long for fear of a tree falling on them!
Notice the tree leaning on the other trees...
We lost a lot of trees that just snapped in half. It was crazy!
In the middle of the night I heard a loud crash. I thought a tree fell on our house but when we looked outside we couldn't see anything. In the morning I saw this big branch is what hit our house. I am glad it didn't go through the window.
The clean up was fun especially with this cute little helper!
