Brrrrrr .... It's still pretty darn cold!

Well, it's still pretty darn cold here. The kids have missed a total of 4 days of school now. We have lived here for 12 years now and most years the schools never closed. And since we've had kids they closed maybe one day a year for 2 years. Sadly, the past two days they missed (in a row) were due to temps being too cold. So, the excitement of a stay home snow day, quickly turns sad when they realize they can't go out to play. If you notice on our temp thingy here, it's negative 12 and the low temp for that day is listed at negative 16. This device does not measure wind chills. This is just straight out temps. Brrrrrrr. 61 and 56 were the high and low temps INSIDE the house up to that point!!
