Family Day: 12 years

We celebrated Family Day today!  It's definitely been a memorable one.  Family Day just happen to fall during the Polar Vortex that has hit the midwest and gave Gracie the week home from school with dangerous temps and blowing snow.  We didn't let that stop us.  Lily Grace loves Sullivan's Steakhouse in Indy.  Matt had a meeting in Indy this morning so what do you do when you are out of school and it's -16 degrees?  You pack the car with your emergency weather items like water, blankets and snow boots and travel to Indianapolis of course to enjoy a delicious meal at your favorite restaurant.  We got a good laugh on the way at the thought of Sullivan's not being open today.  (After all, mail delivery was stopped today and several businesses were closed and of course schools all over the state are closed for the remainder of the week.)  It may have been cold but it was fun and delicious and of course we did it together! 
Thank you God for safe travels and the blessing of family.  

Check out that windchill of -40 degrees.  Add in the wind and I won't lie, it would take your breath away.

The newsfeed across my phone this morning on the way to Indy.

Freezing for a selfie in front of Sullivans as the wind whipped about and Gracie freaked out because she took the 5 minute exposure frostbite warning seriously.

According to her, this is The Place for the BEST burger, hands down.  It's her favorite!
