First the Snow now the Cold

 In the month of December it was in the 40s  and it barely snow at all in the last month of year. It was unfortunate that the kids was not able to enjoy a white Christmas and new year. 

Good ol Mother Nature decided that this week that she has some catching up to do. We received about 10-12" this past week. The littles had fun outside playing with fresh snow. The goofballs on Saturday, it was their quest(I guess) to stay in there PJs all day long. The little things in life I guess. 

Now it is coldness and wild chills decided to come on in. It is the time for deceiving views while you look outside. It feels like it is -20 to -30 outside. It is the season to layer up every time you go outside even to walk to the car or bring the dog out.

 

During this time it the sounds of come out during this time when the temps plummet well below zero.The crunching of the snow and ice is natures music.

Sadly, during these temps the kids are not allowed to go outside and play for their recess. After, the school day they have PLENTY of energy when they get home. They will be racing around like a squirrel that just drank Red Bull.😂

It  should be another week or so of the subzero temps. Then who knows what the weather will bring. 

Remember that winter is the time to reset/restart to start out a new season. 

Fools' Spring is Over

 It is finally Friday…it just seemed like a LONG week. I am not that sure why that is😦 We survived it. 

On Sunday, the girls had a softball Camp. It seems like they learned quite a bit from instructors that have played in college or are currently coaching. I think that it was money well spent for the girls to learn for a great group of ladies.

It seems that Fools' Spring is over though. Yesterday we had a pretty big snowstorm. Before yesterday we had very little snow, but now we have piles of snow once again. We received a good foot or more in the last couple of days. With the weather and road conditions, I did not go to work yesterday. With the time that I go to work the roads are usually not plowed very well if at all. 

All the kids even played outside in the snow yesterday. Because sometimes it is a chore to get them outside. They would rather veg in the house instead of enjoying the weather that God gives us, especially after a snowstorm. A snowstorm offers a blank slate and restart.
