Brrrrr
It's been a few weeks since I made my last post. Not too much has happened in the past two weeks, but we are doing well. It has been exceptionally cold here. I have never felt so cold in my life. I thought Bozeman was cold, but it gets much colder here in Mankato. It's all that wind we get. Last Friday we had a dangerous weather warning for wind chill temperatures down to negative 40 degrees. Needless to say we decided to stay home and spend the evening together. Luckily it has warmed up the last few days to a high of 31 degrees. You know you live in Minnesota when you get excited for 30 degree weather, because it actually feels warm. Most days haven't been as cold as last Friday was, but we were in the single digits for about a week and most days the wind chill was in the negatives. I would go to the store and just walking from the store to the car, my hands would start to hurt, it was so cold. I can't believe I live somewhere that gets this cold. I hate cold and winter. I told Jon, each time we move, we move somewhere that is colder than the last place. Right about now, Las Vegas is sounding pretty good. Can we move next door to you Cam? Other than the extreme freezing temperatures, we are doing well. I hope the rest of you are staying warmer than we are. We miss you all!

I know exactly what you mean. today was -39. Our high was I think-27. We loved last week. We got up to 39 above. But hey at this point we are used to this cold winter thing. Spring is crazy. It hits 35 degrees and the sun is up and people are out in their shorts and t-shirts. You really do get used to the cold. It is our fifth winter here. My mom thinks I am a crazy when we are in Utah during the winter and I don't have a coat on. But when we leave here and it is -40 and get there and it is 45. It feels really warm. Love you!! Sorry we missed you over Christmas!!!
