Snow birds flying North for the winter?

My parents have been here visiting for the past week. We loved having them here and had a great time hanging out and showing them our new city. The cold temps were quite a shock to their thin Florida blood. The temperature hasn't made it above zero once and we have quite a bit of snow on the ground, but it's really beautiful and sunny. The snow here is clean, fluffy and powdery, unlike the dirty slushy stuff we were used to in the Midwest. Dayven even shoveled a path in the snow from the back door to the hot tub, but that wasn't enough to entice my parents out into the "arctic" temps. We tried to stick to mostly indoor activities. We took Wyatt to see Santa, which turned out to be fairly uneventful. My mom went with us to Wyatt's music class one day and we cooked, shopped, played Rummikub and put my dad to work on various fix-it projects around the house. Dayven is actually quite handy and can usually fix most things, but he's been so busy with work lately, he hasn't had time so we really appreciated my dad's help. We celebrated Christmas on Sunday since we won't see them again until Spring and Wyatt had fun opening up his new toys. And of course, they soaked up every minute with their little guy. Poppy put together the train set from cousin Holden and they had fun playing with that, until Wyatt crashed into the town and ripped the whole thing apart Godzilla-style. He still hasn't quite mastered the concept of passive play. We're going to miss them, but the house won't be empty yet. Charlie, Marta and Aniela arrive today for a visit and to attend some holiday parties with us this week.
