Spending January in the North Pole

Okay so we haven't moved to the North Pole, but after this month of a blizzard, single digit degree days and an ice storm, you'd wonder!



Look at how much snow we got! It's almost as tall as Tess!



Bry finally got to use his snow blower. This is our 3rd winter with a snow blower, but we've never had to use it.

 

THe kids have spent MANY days sledding, snow ball fighing, skiing and building snow forts.



I've enjoyed sitting in my warm house waiting for my tired, happy boys to come tromping in. I haven't really even minded the constant floor litter of coats, boots and gloves.



But ya know, I'm kinda ready for it all to melt. It's getting kinda ugly and dirty now. It's just so pretty for the first few days though!



Here's to hoping that our tundra will melt away sometime soon.  Winter doesn't necessarily have to be over, but I'd like to have a little break :)
