We (barely) survived some of the coldest temps Minnesota has seen in over 15 years. Minus 25 degrees - yowza!

I'm not saying that we barely survived the temperatures based on being cold but rather being stuck inside with each other for too long! I tried to keep them busy with different activities but nothing seemed to hold their attention for more than 10 minutes (go figure).

This video does a better job of summing up what the majority of moments over the last week have been like.

The worst news came when Minneapolis schools decided to cancel for Monday and Tuesday due to the cold temperatures. So they didn't have preschool on Tuesday as they normally would. We did venture out that day and tried to burn off some energy somewhere other than our house.

The predicted highs of 34 today are going to feel tropical. Here's to hoping the worst is behind us (ha)!
