In Stark Contrast

Last Sunday morning we decided to go for a walk...to the donut shop. (Walking to the donuts makes eating the donuts less unhealthy, right? Not that it mattered to me last weekend anyway - I worked out for like 49 hours on Saturday, so on Saturday night and Sunday I gave myself quite a bit of freedom when it came to what I ate.)

It was partly cloudy and 40 degrees outside - not to mention the 20+ MPH wind gusts - when we left our house. Everyone walked/jogged for the first quarter mile or so, at which point Will decided he was a little too bundled up and took off a few of his layers. This is what my kids were wearing when we arrived at the donut shop.
Will's wearing an undershirt and warm-up pants.
Hallie's wearing an undershirt, a long-sleeved shirt, tights, a skirt,
fur-lined boots, and her winter coat, hat, and mittens.
I'd say it's pretty obvious which one of my children is from Michigan and which one is "from" Texas.

  1. I would totally be the sweaty one in just a t-shirt also. Earlier this week I thought of Will and his coat debacle with the "cold" weather when my students were super mad we couldn't go out for recess because the temp was in the single digits and the playground was covered with ice...maybe he will move up north one day :)
