Winter, winter...Go Away!

I'm really tired of the cold, the snow and the dark, dreary days. I'm ready for spring to arrive. In the last 3 weeks the boys have been out of school 7 of those days for "snow days"...or more accurately "the snow melts during the day and the puddles freeze over at night and since Okies are idiots we'll cancel school days!" All days that have to be made up by losing scheduled holidays and adding time to each school day. It didn't help that half those days saw one or both of my kids with fevers! Ugh!
Our first snow storm...my Youngest actually had a fever here, but he wanted to get out in the snow soooo badly and I figured the low teen temperatures would cool him off a little!



I even got out in the snow and threw a couple of snowballs. Cabin fever is a bummer!

This is my boys' attempt at a snow fort! Unfortunately they couldn't get out in the deeper snow since they were getting over colds.

But they had fun anyway!
This week we are seeing temperatures in the 60's and 70's with a hint of spring in the air. That's weather in Oklahoma.
