What's this white stuff?

Man is it cold! When they start adding that funny little minus sign to the front of the temperature, I officially step out of my comfort zone. I love snow, but I don't think I could live in the Midwest where it gets so cold that it's a hazard to go outside at all. Craziness.

     As it is, we've had several days this year where's it's been cold enough to delay schools. Like today... Although today we have some of that fun white stuff coming down, which makes it feel both colder and more bearable at the same time.

     And it is fun to see how excited my girls get to see the snow. Yes, it has snowed before, but not in quite a while, and I don't think either can really remember seeing the snow before. So my toddler took the chance to run outside and stomp around in the dusting of snow we got. Too bad we didn't get more, but I am still holding out a chance we might get some tonight.

     Because seriously, it's supposed to get down into the single digits. With that kind of cold and a sky full of clouds, it's just mean to get no snow.
