Hey there !
I don't know about you, but I was getting really, really comfortable with the weather being so mild. Running to the mailbox in my sweatshirt, hopping in and out of my car without a jacket, not warming up my car before I drove away.
Alas, we knew it wouldn't last. Hello, Winter. You have hit us with all your ferocity, and this is when Minnesotans make stupid decisions are the most proud.
Want to get in on the action? Bundle your kids up in many layers and plan to hit some of the most exciting family events.
Otherwise, be smart and you can find some fantastic indoor weekend activities as well.
Check out a Winter Festival!
