Cold and more cold

This has been one heck of a monumental winter for us in Ohio.  And for us Texans, it's just been plain brutal.  We've maxed out our 5 calamity days for the year for school and I'm sure even more will be used.  I guess the girls will be going to school in June to make up those days.  The temps have dipped down into the negative teens with wind chills reaching 20 and 30 below.  Ouch.  We've tried hard to keep ourselves occupied while homebound.  The girls have dug old toys out of the basement, we've baked, worked puzzles, watched movies, I've started watching Downton Abbey, and today it looks like we're going to see The Nut Job.  Not many kids movies out right now, and we've seen Frozen twice already.  I guess it's nice to have downtime but too much of it will drive you a bit batty!
