Squeeze it in

I have to get this post in before tomorrow. Valentine's Day is one of my most favorite days of the year. But before we get to the love, let's re-cap the recent winter weather.

The kids were so excited about playing in the snow. I felt like it was way too cold for them to be outside. So we compromised. We have to check our neighbor's mail everyday because she is in the hospital (has been since October-feel free to pray for her-her name is Leona). I bundled up the big kids and let them go get Leona's mail. I went out with them and let them play as long as they wanted. We were outside less than 10 minutes! It was cold!

Grant was SO mad that he did not get to go outside (he is not outside in the picture but it looks like he is)
We enjoyed the week of very cold temperatures. We enjoyed several fires in the fireplace, stew, smores, chili, and hot chocolate. It was fun to take a break from our normal routine and just enjoy lots of time together as a family.

  1. They look like they had fun. Shaleigh wanted out so bad but like you it was so cold, but I finally let her outside for a little bit. Need to get those posted soon.
