The White Witch

I feel like the Narnians in CS Lewis' series where they say under the white witches' rule it was always winter and never Christmas. It seems like it will never thaw and there is no more reason to have winter--no skiing, no Christmas, etc. Atleast the kids are still enamored with the ice after we forced them to go outside since they were getting cabin fever inside. I enjoyed the snowy day by running in the Polar Run downtown. I've taken Sister in law Sarah's advice since she lives in Minnesota where it's even colder--embrace the cold. So I was downtown at 8 am with 2,000 other brave souls running 5 miles just because. I was proud of my PR; I finished in 47:33. Not bad when my toes felt like they were going to fall off.
More picturesque scenery from our ice storms last week. I will say snow and ice is better than bleak and bare.




I told the kids we have snow snakes and they make these patterns. I don't know if they bought it or not:)
