Making the most of 30 degrees

We have had a number of days lately that have hovered around the 30 degree mark. When you live in Minnesota, you get the opportunity to learn how to make the most of 30 degree days! Last week we got another 8-10 inches of snow. Here's Callie in the front yard and then laying on top of the snow pile (what we've shoveled or snow plowed off the driveway).

The four of us went on walk around a lake that's not too far from our house. Here's Callie and I on the frozen lake. We think it was Callie first time walking on a lake. There was a spot further around on the lake where the ice was thin because of a little waterfall. We all enjoyed watching the scores of ducks jumping from the ice into the water.
