We are coming out of a FOUR day weekend here. Not because of snow (we got a couple of inches at the most) but because of deep freeze. (Remind me some time to tell you about all of the crazy weather things that happen anytime Ross and I move to a new place... I am actually starting to believe it might be us.)
Today should be a high of 18 degrees. Which is actually a warm-up from days past. They cancelled school on Friday because it was a high of ZERO!! I think in the middle of the night it was -12 or something like that. Canadians would scoff at me, I suppose, but it is a little unusual for here. And in case you were wondering, the car thermometer reading actual does negative numbers! Check it out:
And that was at 6:30 in the evening! Yikes!
Zoey and Ross had some fun shoveling the driveway and even sledding a bit before it got super cold. Unfortunately, the snow was super cold and dry (dry snow? It just doesn't pack together Ross tells me) so no Snowman making! Zoey has been waiting for enough snow to do that, but alas... she must continue to wait... Here's the alternative (slave labor):
And then what do you do? Just hang out inside... At least we have Dad to climb on:
And smiles to go around!
I'm off to hibernate, see you in the spring! (ahh, how I wish)

we had the same kind of dry snow here today--no snowman making for us either! the good news for us, though, is that at least it was like 30 degrees out, instead of -1! yikes!
Sorry to hear it - I know what fun those northern winters can be! I don't want to tell you that it's 66 and sunny here...
