SNOW

This winter has been the craziest one yet for us here in Maryland. We have had some 20 individual snowfalls, and over 30 inches of total snowfall. The previous three winters I don't think we got above 2 in, so this was a big deal. Along with the snow there were the 'arctic blasts' that gave us several single digit days, and many more days in the teens. Despite the cold, we were able to get outside and play.

We made snow ice cream a couple of times 

 I think she was teething this day

 It came to a point where Jack didn't want to go outside in the cold anymore so he'd only go our when it warmed up

Jack loved breaking ice and throwing it into puddles, or just throwing ice and watching it shatter on the ground 

You can see the ice line where the tidal basin froze. We have discovered the best time to go into DC is January and February.
