Two weeks ago, every school district in the valley was given a snow day. Every school district that is, except ours.
The local charter school had a snow day. So did Travis' preschool.
In honesty, we didn't have that much snow (Idaho usually keeps school open for many inches more); the cancellations came from slick roads and wind.
Benjamin felt understandably bummed as he left for school after watching the news with me that morning.
Travis & Libby declared it Pirate Day.
Weeks of frigid weather followed. We woke up to negative temperatures and sometimes reached double digits as the day's high. Frozen fog sure looks pretty, but it hurts. Brrr!
Last night, a new storm moved in and brought the weather up to a balmy 20 degrees. With it came a little snow and quite a bit of ice. Once again, many districts in the area closed school today... but not Kuna.
Just Libby stayed home today. We made it a girls' morning and had a princess tea party
and played cowgirls
before skidding our way across the ice to get Travis. Oy.
