Cold, Cold, Cold!

This January has been just so cold.  Miserably cold.  And gray.  And frigid.  Well, you get the idea.  At this point any snow is welcome just because it tends to warm things up and clear out the air - at least for a few days.  When it's really cold like this, the pool at the sports mall gets really steamy under the bubble.  Kind of fun since you can't actually see to the end of the lane.  You just hope you see other swimmers before you run into them, I guess.

The cold also does a nice job of coating everything in a nice thick layer of ice.  Here, it's Shawn's windshield, but also our sidewalk, and driveway and anything else that gets wet...
It's just kind of hard to love January, you know?
But on a happier note, Jonas did finally get his fancy sunglasses that were his birthday present.  Yeah, I know it was in August, but at least he got them before his next birthday.  (This was partly his fault too, for being so indecisive about which ones to get.)  But now he's all set to go outside and be protected from the glare off of the snow - if the sun ever manages to break through!
