I don't think I had ever heard of a polar vortex before this year. And now we've been surviving through it. Crazy amounts of snow and cold, cold weather. The kids had an extra 3 days off during their Christmas vacation (that's 19 days off!) and then another 7 days off in a row because of it (in combination with a weekend). Roads were closing in all around us!

So what's a mom to do with two girls who are anxious to get back to school? Their final day off during that 7-day stretch, we got out my wedding dress. The pictures speak for themselves: it was beautiful and oh so fun!
