Winter...bring it on!

This winter has been quite mediocre so far. We have had some snow, which is nice but with stretches of temperatures above freezing we have lost most of it.

Winter here in Minnesota is always better with a lot of snow and temperatures just below freezing. All the fun stuff you can do here depends on the snow, otherwise it is just dreary and brown. The kids like to go sliding, and there hasn't been much good snow for that. They did get out with Krista during the last snowfall and made a snowman in the front yard.

Minnesota is a great place to live, but sometimes winter can drag on. There is so little daylight with so many overcast days, and the days of light are short to begin with. We need our snow to make it fun.
