January 3 in the snow!

I have some kind of a bug, so while I slept most of today away, Andrew and the kids went back outside to play in the snow. Oh yes, it's been snowing all day!

The temperature has been close to freezing (as opposed to that stretch when we had minus 17 or colder!) This means it's much more pleasant for playing outside.

In fact, Andrew says that it's much easier to work on the fort because he can just cut blocks of snow right out of the snow (as opposed to packing them in a bin) and put them right on the fort.
