This is the scene we woke up to this morning. I couldn't believe my eyes, were almost to June and it is snowing!!!! Talk about crazy weather. Cory came home for the weekend from Driggs and we talked last night about all the fun stuff we were going to do with the kids. Most of the ideas we had involved being outside, just not in the snow. We changed our plans to the max but still had a fun Saturday. My children were ecstatic about playing in the snow. They stayed outside in it until they were soaked inside and out! Sledding and trying to build a snow castle seemed to be the major hits. I on the other hand had cleaned out the fireplace and washed off the inset rocks to be ready for summer weather, boy was I wrong. It is almost midnight and it is 23 degrees! Winter is defiantly not over. . . . . the forecast for the next few days is cold and snowy. I sure hope the weather man is wrong on this account.

April Fools'
How's this for April Fools' Day? My kids were soooo excited that they stayed outside for two hours!!!! Sadie was turning cartwheels in the snow she was so happy. We retreated finally to the house for some hot chocolate and marshmallows. What a fun day!!!!!

I'm Freezing!!!
Okay literally I am freezing. This whole week the weatherman had said "Tonight will be the coldest night this week" and that was on Sunday! I always check the temperature when I get up at four in the morning to feed Haylee and I was surprised on Monday morning when it read -11 degrees. I was shocked to see -14 degrees on Tuesday morning. I was appalled to see -18 degrees Wednesday morning. I was absolutely floored to see -24 degrees this morning! My kids are crazy because they haven't been outside much and we are going through soooo much wood for the wood stove. I hauled in wood just now and it is already - 4 degrees at 5:30 p.m. My hands about froze just touching the wood even through my gloves. I heard that winter was here, but I think Jack Frost is out for vengeance this time around!

Wonders of the Wind
Today we had a little wind storm blow through here. It howled big time and I wondered if our little house would just fall over, but when I looked outside it was the dead tree in the back that fell! It almost hit the house, we were lucky it fell where it did. Crazy that the wind blew that hard!!
