Summer School ?!?!?!?!?!?!?

No, I'm not talking about actual summer school.. I'm talking about make up days because this kid has only had 8 days of school since December 20th!!!  EIGHT DAYS since mid December.. That is just crazy!!!!  Now, I know 2 weeks was Christmas, New Years &  one was Martin Luther King Day but the other 9 were snow/ cold days!!!  His 1st week back after Christmas Break was cancelled because we got a huge snow storm that literally shut down the city for 3 days and the roads were not back to normal for almost an entire week!  Then when we thought we were back on track after a week of classes he had a short week due to Monday off for Martin Luther King day - little did we know that Friday would also be cancelled.  Friday along with Monday, Tuesday & Wednesday of this week have been cancelled due to this "artic blast" weather we are experiencing.  It a good steady 10 degrees today but, the wind chill makes it negative...  YUCK!!!  I am not going to lie Me, Connor & Zennon have not left the house since Sunday!!  We are staying indoors & warm. 

 

As much as I love having Connor home with Zennon & I - I also don't want him to be in school half the month of June.  LoL :)  Our summer is short enough. They have tossed around ideas about extra assignments coming home with them on Spring Break to help get caught up, not having presidents day off school anymore, Even extending the calamity days for kids this year due to this nasty weather. I'm anxious to see what the final call will be.  

 

After today, the temperature is suppose to go back to our "normal" January temps so, hopefully school will be back in session!  

 

Now, they are calling for another snow, ice storm on Saturday evening. Hoping it doesn't add to his list but, whatever it takes to keep these kids safe - I am on board!!  I just hope they come up with good alternative for making up days rather then spending an extra half month of school..

 

 

We have played a lot of WII this week! 

 

 

We played bowling, baseball, tennis, golf, boxing!  Connor is getting pretty good especially at bowling!  Usually when we play Zennon is only in it for a few minutes then we see this!

 

 Playing his own version on a video game! 

Smiling for a picture!!!

 

I love being trapped in doors with these cuties but, I'm ready to have a different kind of fun.
