Weekly Round up: Winter Weather

It has been freezing cold this week! We had some snow fall Tuesday and it was a little more than the local weather channels said. We had a semi-warmer day yesterday in the low 50s, but we’re back in the 30s and it feel like it’s in the 20s. Here’s a picture from our apartments to give you an idea of the beautiful snow we had. 

Good news was that my husband worked from the apartment on the snow day. We managed to get into a snowball fight and walk around the fake lake behid our apartments. Hot cocoa was a must and it gave me an excuse have some hot cookies! I may have went overboard and ate most of them, but I’m sure he understands.  :) We’re still waiting to see if Circuit City’s liquidation deals get better.
