Beat the cold!

It looks like we're going to have a slight reprieve from the cold tomorrow (and although warmer weather always means snow, I personally enjoy extra snow than I do bitter cold!)

The Weather Network is predicting a high of 1, but I've heard it might be as high as 3 - yipee!

That means it's time for our first skate of the year on the canal! Skating with little ones can be tough - last year we turned around and went back home after only 20 minutes. With both girls crying their eyes out and freezing, it wasn't an overly pleasant trip.

My Mom and granddaughter enjoying 5 minutes without crying last year!

But 1 degree is doable I think! And a bit of bribing with beaver tails and hot chocolate is not above me ;)

If skating is not your thing, check out my post on Capital Parent, where I talk about snowshoeing with kids!
