Snowy Day

Yesterday we finally got a few inches of snow!  It was perfect for playing in right before lunch.  It was only like 26 degrees outside, no wind, sunny.  I got bundled up with the kids and we went stomping through the yard.  The roads were pretty clear, so we went and worked out in the morning, Jayden had school in the afternoon.  Royal decided to come home from work early to play with the kids in the snow, so he picked Jayden up from school and came home.  Unfortunately by then, the next cold front was coming in, so it was much colder, snowing little tiny frozen hard snow, and the wind was blowing. But we bundled them up anyway!






Willow lasted about 10 minutes, before she came in to do some cooking with me.  :)  Jayden and Royal and Sam went for a long walk around the neighborhood stomping in all the snow and came back looking like ice cubes!


Now today, it is sunny and clear, and thanks to the low last night of 0 (that would be zero!), all our activities for the day have been canceled - no Strollers in Motion, no school for Jayden, no swimming for Willow.  We are now all mostly healthy but still trapped in the house, this time due to ice and frozen temperatures.  Outside right now, it's 6, but really feels like -18 (that's in Fahrenheit, my friend!).   Brrrr.  I'm gonna go turn up the heat

It is absolutely frigid outside, no joke.
