Illinois weather is very interesting. It was absolutely freezing (below zero) when we arrived, and today it'll be in the 50's. There's snow and ice all around that is slowly starting to drip away. Yesterday Rowan and I went outside with Uncle Dave, Uncle Rob, and Meghan (Uncle Rob's girlfriend). Daddy has a little cold, so he stayed inside, and Papaw took a spill on the ice earlier in the day so he had to stay in and rest his aching back. :( Rowan and I went down the hill and slid across the frozen lake on a sled! He loved it.
