This winter has been BRUTAL! Polar Vortex…snow, snow and more snow, freezing weather even on the warm days and up to –40 degrees with the wind chills. I’ve never before heard of school being cancelled for cold (as opposed to snow), but we had several days off this year because it was too dangerous for the kids waiting at bus stops. This past weekend was pretty nice, but yesterday, my phone said it was 54 degrees after school. Logan ran into the house, threw down his things and immediately changed into shorts. All the kids in the neighborhood came out of hibernation and played outside. When I snapped a few pics with my camera phone. Logan told me to put it on Twitter and say “"#54degressisshortsweather” also apparently, short-sleeves-and-no-coat weather.

After bike & scooter riding, Logan ran off with his friend Sam to the park for over and hour and a 1/2 while Brady and Aiden “shoveled” the back yard and played some soccer.

Of course more snow is on the way along with yet another winter weather advisory tonight, but at least we had yesterday!
