Brrr.....January

Age old question....how does one get through chilly MN with a smile on your face and no frost-bite on your toes? Well, here's a few things I suggest:

1. Swim lessons in a hot, steamy pool - just make sure there is a big, dry towel handy
2. Indoor soccer - this will work up a good sweat and for an extra bonus it is socially acceptable to wear shorts which reminds one of summer
3. Put on a silly play for parents and supportive friends who are over for dinner - gets your creative juices flowing
4. Attend as many birthday parties for friends as you can - thanks Michael, Grayson, Alex, Zach, Luke, and Ashley for all turning 5 this month!
5. Sleepover at your favorite cousin's house - downside you do have to go home the next day
6. Last but not least....end the month with a bang and turn 5 yourself.

Happy Birthday to me!
