Frigid Weather!

This week has been soooo cold! We had a "snow day" on Tuesday, but really it was a cold day. According to the news, it was -32, yes minus 32, with the wind chill factor. It was crazy cold! In fact, we let all of the kids sleep in the living room this week b/c the fire was much warmer there. It was pretty cute to see the 3 little ones sleeping in a row on their sleeping bags. I remember when Christopher used to love to do that! This time, he took to the couch. We ended up having school on Wednesday even though the high for the day was the same as Tuesday. However, the wind wasn't blowing so +6 was cold but much more comfortable than a frigid -32. It was still so cold that they bused the kids from Shanner and PreSchool to the lunch room. Connor and Cade got to ride a big yellow bus to lunch and then a small white bus to Shanner after school. They loved it, of course!

That frost that you see, is actually on the inside of our window. This is our back door on the north side of our house, which was the direction that the arctic wind was out of.

This is a close up of the crystallized coldness.

These are the good times!!
