When life gives you lemons ...

For a long time now, and many days yet to come,
We've been waking up to temperatures of 5-15 degrees,
And seeing high temperatures that only on ocassion will barely break freezing.
There's about 6" of packed ice on our street and has been for a month.
Many of our neighborhood sidewalks haven't been shoveled well
(don't get me started on that one!)
Even getting out of the car to get the mail is unbelievably treacherous.
My car is filthy, the garage is filthy, and a wash for either seems no where in sight.
Short, dark, cold, cold days; busy season; and this year we have this unending ice.

But alas, although I've had my fill of these cold lemons,
leave it to Sean to make lemonade!

He and his buddies are loving that Dave keeps on shoveling off
both the backporch & basketball court...
Sean's perfected the jump/flip that turns the skateboard from upside down
to riding it right side up ... what an incredible amount of balance & talent!

Wheels!!!

Next up? Two-floor desk tag races ~ You're It!
