Snowy Day

In February we had some freezing cold days and missed almost a week of school. There wasn't much snow and it was too dry to do much of anything, but Jack gave it a go anyway. AnneMarie refused to go outside.

Notice Jack is wearing two different snow boots. His left foot was hurt and swollen at this time, so he wore his sister's boot on that foot, since it is a few sizes bigger. Thankfully, his foot is almost completely healed and there will be no permanent damage.

We had fun out there but boy was it COLD! We only lasted about 15 minutes outside. That was the coldest week I can remember since I've moved to New Mexico. School was actually cancelled not because of snow but because of complications from the cold (frozen buses, natural gas shortage).
