But of course to Katie it might as well have been a blizzard! She was so excited!! She wanted to get suited up and go out right away. Of course, as always happens, we couldn't find her weatherproof mittens. Well, I found one .... but since Katie thinks they are toys when she isn't using them for their intended purpose we can't find the other. It will show up in a few days when it isn't needed. I finally convinced Katie that her velour pants would not fit under her skinny jeans ... and she was OFF! 
Yes, she did smack me with this snowball right after I snapped the picture. 
She even attempted a snow angel ... in the hammock. 
AND THEN ... Connor woke up! And of course he wanted to go outside as well. So, I got him suited up and away we went!
... you knew I would take pics of something not involving the kids ... 
Daddy even bundled up and took Connor out for some play time!
And ... at the end of the day, as I checked my email... I noticed one from the School .... CANCELING SCHOOL FOR TOMORROW!
...and this is what the yard looked like right then!! 
I have heard it is because of our extremem cold temperatures. But I think of the fact there might be kids with no heat, who will be home. And not to mention that if the kids were in school they would be inside. When the kids are at home they will be playing outside ... IN THE COLD! And I worry that there are kids who might only get a well rounded meal when they are at school. I do live in Mississippi, so that is all entirely possible. And what about those kids left at home because there is no childcare?!
The school has heat ... CRANK IT UP! I don't know how much more togetherness this family can stand!!
.... OH! And next time, don't make me struggle through the screaming and the tears to get homework done!
