Punxsutawney Phil did not see his shadow yesterday, so supposedly spring is on the way. You'd never know it here. Snow flurries Thursday, ice Friday, more snow yesterday, snow today...I told a friend on Twitter that Phil was a low-down, dirty liar.
We had no church this morning, and this evening's classes and Super Bowl party were also cancelled. There is more snow possible tonight, although I don't think it's as likely as the past few days. Of course, weather forecasting is iffy at best, and we sometimes get our biggest snows when it isn't really supposed to do all that much.
The girls have a sled (thanks, Dad!), so we did get out for awhile today. A short while. I freely confess that my entire family is a bunch of cold weather wimps. It's a good thing I've never had to live in Michigan or anything--I'd die. Part of the problem was the wind--it was cold, strong, and biting. We had no desire to stay out in it for very long.
Both girls had a great time for that short stint though, sledding down the hill. Then we came inside and drank hot beverages. In my opinion, hot drinks and blankets are the ideal way to spend a cold afternoon. I can look out the window at the pretty snow from inside my nice warm house.
