From a Heat Wave to Canceled School

You know it's cold when they cancel schools in Wyoming.

Yesterday we had a foot of fresh snow on the ground and the high temp for the day was 4 degrees. Yet, we still had school.

This morning, we awoke to frigid temperatures and an announcement that due to inclement weather and high winds forecasted, schools had been canceled!


It's beautiful outside - lots of snow and bright sunshine and blue skies. Gotta love Wyoming winters! Here's a picture looking out the front door. It's too cold to get out any further than that.






...and looking out the back. Timothy can't wait to go down the slide.


In a matter of a few short days, the temperature has shifted dramatically. About 80 degrees of a shift. Our last post showed our thermometer at 65 degrees and today it is......




....-13 degrees. And that's WITHOUT the wind chill factored in!!!

The kids are thrilled! Sarah let out a Hip, Hip, Hooray.



Savannah claps for joy that she doesn't have to be loaded into the Yukon for the morning trip to school.




Lindsay and Timothy celebrate with a game of early morning cribbage.




Allie's HUGE smile says it all.
Unfortunately both Allie and I have to go get Tetanus shots today in preparation for out Children't Chorale trip to Spokane in a couple of weeks. The up side is that she doesn't have to miss school for the appointment.
