My Grandmother's memorial was this past weekend in Lincoln. It was a nice service and I got to see the relatives but cold. I lived in Nebraska for 5 years in my life and do not remember it being like that before and know it usually isn't that extreme. I think the highest temp was 7 the whole 3 days. Once the wind settle down it wasn't so bad other than the 7 layers of outdoor clothing. It was so windy Thursday that we got to see a sun dog driving from Omaha to Lincoln.
Van ventured out in the snow at my Grandmother's house with his cousins. Clad in hand me downs he had trouble walking in the 2 feet plus of snow cover and kept calling out "for a little help". Casey went into the indoor pool and the closest he got to the snow was looking at a drift through the pool windows. Van watched the 40 years of Sesame Street DVD in the car and I Love Trash got changed into I Hate Snow which I sung in my head each time I went outside.
I Hate Snow
(sung to the tune of Oscar the Grouches I love trash) Oh I hate snow
It's all cold, clingy and crunchy
It's all slippery, icy and turns slushy
Yes, I hate snow
I have snow in my pants
It's only negative 2
A 2 foot snow cover is eating my boot
I hate it because it's snow
Oh I hate snow
It's all cold, clingy and crunchy
It's all slippery, icy and turns slushy
Yes, I hate snow
The sun dog in Omaha

Uncle Jim (who Casey is named after) Van Casey and Kate
