Cabin Fever

Burrrrrrr it is so cold outside!!  Today was supposed to be our first day back to school for Zeke and I.  However the temperature was at a record low this morning (-2, I believe?) breaking a 100 year record.  So due to the low temperatures we had a snow day.  Zeke and I have been pretty bored.  We don't typically get out and about in super cold weather so we just hang low at home.  We decided to boil water and take it outside to throw it up in the air and watch it evaporate.  Zeke thought this was super cool.  I can't even count how many times we came in to boil more water so that we could do it again and again.  As long as he was having fun I was going to keep doing it.  We spent the rest of the day building Lego's, playing games, and snuggling on the couch watching t.v.  I love that he is still little enough to where he wants to cuddle with me...and it be his idea!  The most exciting thing he was able to do today was to Skype with his friend Hunter.  Hunter moved to the UAE a couple of months ago.  We have only been able to talk to him once since he has been there and today Zeke received a surprise Skype from him.  They were so cute.  They were talking about what they have been up to, what they did for Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years.  Zeke asked him all about camels.  Then they started playing Lego's together...well not together...but online with each other.  It was so fun to see!  Zeke misses him very much and I was very happy to be able to see them enjoying each others company.  :)  We can't wait to see them this summer when they get to come home for a little while.  Well I better get to bed.  Tomorrow is our first day back to school and I actually have to set an alarm.  Eek.
