One of my New Year’s resolutions was to get the kids outside more. We had a big snowstorm Sunday morning, so Monday there was plenty of beautiful snow for Emma to play with. It was even close to freezing, a vast improvement over the –10 Fahrenheit temperatures we had last week.
Emma had a wonderful time playing in the snow castle Mike built her, and throwing snowballs. Getting Emma to come inside to warm up is always the hardest part of playing outside, so I have to make sure I have a good activity/treat to bribe her back inside with.

Tomorrow is supposed to be freezing, but today is approaching 60 degrees. Weird for January, at least in my book. It IS really nice, though, to walk outside in the bright, relatively warm sunshine. Honestly, I crave sunshine, so days like this are a welcome treat.Looks like Emma had a grand time in the snow.
