Polar Vortex (aka really really COLD)

The crazy weather people claimed that the cold spell was a POLAR VORTEX but I have a feeling they just like to dramatize a strong cold front.  Whatever.  It basically meant that we were stuck in our house for days.  I wouldn't have opened the doors at all if not for the dogs.  I was also very aware of little cold air leaks in our home (like most of the upstairs windows!)

Unfortunately, Mr. Kam loves the cold weather and snow but he doesn't understand dangerous cold.  He was not happy that he couldn't play outside when it was about 4 degrees.  I brought a little of the fresh snow in the house for him...

Once it got a bit warmer, Kam loved some time outside...

He takes shoveling very seriously, and insisted on cleaning off his car (like mom and dad).
