I found this blog, seaofshoes, on a friend's blog. It's a fashion blog and the girl, who is 16, wears Prada regularly and lives in North Dallas. Anyways, she often takes a picture of what she wore that day. I'm not going to do that, but given the extremely low temperatures here in North Dakota, you may be wondering what I am wearing.
To preface, look closely at this picture. Currently, it is -21 degrees outside. Yesterday morning it dipped down to -38, but I didn't take a picture of that because I had an 8 o'clock class. So today I am sporting what people up here call "cuddleduds." It's the brand name of long johns for women. I got mine at JCPenny, but you can also get them at Kohl's and Target. On top of that I have some corduroys. The problem with cuddleduds (or any other type of long john) is that you are limited by what pants you can put over them. Either I have grown outward, or most of my pants cup my bootay. The cords I am wearing today have some spandex-give in them, so you can squeeze into them with your cuddleduds. I am also wearing a cuddledud top. On top of that I have a Patagonia midweight athletic top and a 700 fill down vest. For shoes, I have some wellies that I have had since 7th grade, they are nicely insulated. I will also be sporting a scarf, a down patagonia jacket, leather mittons, and a rabbit fur lined bomber hat.
In other news, last weekend I went to a UND hockey game. We played the University of MN and won. Go Sioux! I had so much fun that I went out the next day and bought ice skates. I have only taken them out once, but it's a lot of fun! The crazy part is how good the little kids are. In the rink next to where I was looking like Bambi, trying to stay upright, were some little boys playing a pickup game of hockey. They were incredible skaters.
Here is a picture of my new skates. I bought them used and replaced the boring white laces with some pink ones :)
Here are some more pictures that I am just now getting around to uploading:
At Thanksgiving. . . . running and going to a UND hockey game with Jacob and Jack. Doesn't Jack make Jacob and me look like shrimps?

I think of you every time they give the forcast on tv. I don't know how you can brave the cold. When it's that cold everything should just shut down and everybody should stay home where it is warm.
You are adorable and totally have sea of shoes girl beat! by the way, did you see her bolero jacket today that she wore to the orthodontist!
