Subject: Winter Freeze

Well we've had negative temperatures here the past seven days and occasionally down as low as -11C on the evenings with highs of -1 during the days.

It all started last Sunday when we woke up to a covering of snow maybe 7 inches deep. Well safe to say my kids couldn't wait to get out and play in the snow, so there they were dressed in wooly hat, leggings, gloves and bare toes. They dashed out the door and played out in the snow for a couple of hours before coming in for some hot cocoa and a gentle warming of their toes.

School has been closed and all that snow rapidly turned to ice! They have been out walking on the snowy ice in bare feet but only for short 10 minutes walks anything longer I've had to insist that they at least wear their wool socks (sometimes even two pairs)

Seems to be warming up today upto 2C so the wool socks will vanish and it's back to completely bare feet for my two.
