We have had some amazing weather since Daddy Bear left for his LONG months of school. First we had a GORGEOUS, sunny, you must be crazy to stay indoors day! Little Bear had a great time at the park, especially since many of his friends in the neighborhood were out too!
We enjoyed dinner and fellowship with some of our neighbors and Baby Sister got to play with her favorite neighbor babies.
Then we had a couple of snow days in a row where we got an inch or less but enough to enjoy.
Even enough to make a "snow dad" with!
What a pick-me-up for us! The rainy winter days can get a little dreary when you are feeling cheerful but especially when Daddy Bear had just left! We welcomed the change of pace and had a blast! Then it snowed some more! Beautiful right??
Then more snow. We were living in a winter wonderland! It was magnificent!!
All we could think about was snow--even when playing Legos!
And it was still pretty fun!
We would play in the snow and get chilled to the bone!
Then bundle up with our warm blankets in our warm houses!
That is until the ice came and brought along with it the END OF OUR FUN.
We were without electricity, snowed AND iced in, cold, spending all our free time holed up with neighbors, also without electricity, which was great and all but without Daddy Bear to help us we weren't finding much enjoyment in it all. After 2 1/2 days without electricity it finally came back on for good and we rejoiced! It could've been, and was, much worse for many others in our area but one day would've been long enough to stress Mama Bear a little. It's no cakewalk trying to keep a baby warm, a cooped up 3 year old sane, and a dog pottied in an ice storm with no electricity. All as a single parent. But we made it through and what didn't kill us...I suppose made us stronger. ;)
