School was called off, so the girls colored their faces.
When the snow stopped, it was time to dig. I didn't want the girls inside all day (instant recipe for insanity) so I bundled them up and took them out in all their gear. Chandler had on four head coverings. Both girls had on proper ski pants.
They messed about for a bit, then Frances actually helped me dig! Minor miracle. Then they got hot and started stripping off layers. If you'd have told me, as a child in Arkansas, that I would one day have children that got hot in 17 degree weather, I'd have laughed long and hard. But then again, I too got hot in 17 degree weather. Major miracle.
