Burr

January 2013 has started out with a bitter cold blast.  But this IS Utah in January.  People told me that Salt Lake is so much warmer than Logan... Lies!  All Lies!  Well, not completely.  I guess those 5-10 degrees may make a difference to some people but after a certain point, bitter painful cold is just bitter painful cold.  The last few night the low has been around -5 to -7 here but they say that it actually "feels" colder.  Uh huh.  It's pretty shocking to walk out into.  Makes me feel a little dazed every time I get that icy blast.  I guess this Utah winter is determined not to disappoint like in years past.  But I am pretty happy that we've had a good bit of snow to make everything pretty.
Despite the cold, the kids seem impervious to anything that threatens frost bite or loss of life and limb.  They would play outside all day if I would let them.  At least they are pretty cute all bundled up like the stay puff marshmallow man.


Grandma Wendy came down to visit and spend the night for Jack's birthday yesterday.  She's such a good grandma to go freeze her butt off with the kids.  They all look cute bundled up.

 Looks like Jack found something to poke his eye out with.



He's just so proud of his amazing find... hence the picture after picture.












Up and down and round and round... that's right, get nice and tired.

  1. At least they were able to play in the snow!! Cold only has a chance of being worth it if there is snow! :D (So glad we ALWAYS have snow, lol!) I'm hoping to hop back onto my blog this year, too!! We started keeping a family journal and that is going to be my life saver for it! Little bits each day, type it up on Sunday ;) Hopefully we can both stay up :) And remember to share your new posts on facebook, I never remember to check blogs otherwise! :P Miss ya!!!
