Hello from frozen Iowa...

So, Saturday we had an ice storm. You can probably see from the pictures that it was cold and unpleasant (although the ice was kind of pretty). Luckily, our only inconvenience was that we lost internet and cable for a few hours, but many, many people in the area were without power - and are still without power. Actually, the school where I work is without power - so no school today or tomorrow. I've been spending my day cleaning, running errands in town, working on grades online and trying to start a fire in our fireplace... so tomorrow will really be a free day - probably to be spent on working on some mail art projects and scrapbooking.

I made this layout with the new Basic Grey paper - yummy - at our monthly teacher scrapbooking night last Thursday.
