Remember that Laura Ingalls Wilder book, The Long Winter? The one in which it is bitterly cold and there is snowstorm after snowstorm? Well, I think we're reliving it (at least to some extent - we're not running out of food or having to twist hay into logs for the fire) here in Iowa this winter. It's been soooooo cold, and whenever it warms up, we seem to get MORE snow. I'm alright with the snow, because if it's going to be cold, we may as well have pretty white snow to look at. I say look at, because it has generally been too cold to actually got out and PLAY in.
Last week we got another round of snow, and while the temps were above the teens, the kiddos took advantage of the "warm weather" to play outside.
Elise loves to help shovel (even though she can hardly hold on to the shovel with her mittens on!)
. . . and Braden likes to dig ;)
I think it was too cold to smile!
