What we do when school is cancelled...

After a fun New Year's Eve spent with our Brazilian neighbors across the street, the holidays came to an end on January 2nd when the kids headed back to school. However, the return was short-lived as it snowed a bunch that afternoon and they ended up having the next day off as a "snow day." Our new Christmas sleds came in very handy for this fun activity (We love our sloped yard in the winter, not so much in the summer when we have to mow it!)

We then had a fun weekend before going back to school on Monday and then having school cancelled again on Tuesday (my kids were loving this pattern though...go one day, have one day off, etc.)

The roads were fine that day and the snow was mostly melted, but it was brutally cold (about -10 degrees with the wind chill.) Needless to say, we didn't even venture outside that day but still came up with some fun indoor activities to do.
Nolan thought he was pretty hot stuff for being on the loft! He sure does miss his big sister and brother when they are off at school, so it was fun to have a little extra time together!!

I still can't get over how incredible this loft is. We went and bought some sleds for the kids and I am glad we did. We had our 8th snow day today.r
