the school system called at around 9 PM last night as the snow began to fall to notify parents that school would be closed today.
the kids woke up to this on their door.
They were over the moon excited to wake up to no school, but more importantly these 2 signs bought mommy an extra hour of sleep! YEAHHHH!
it snowed 4 inches last night and it was that big wet kinda snow.
we did suffer a couple casualties,
Mr. tree is a gonner.
but more importantly, THE TV IS OUT!
oh sweet mother of god, a snow day and no TV, i hope the snow doesn't melt any time soon!
so at 7AM we were dressed and in the snow. (ok they were dressed, i was in my jammies and uggs). 4 inches of snow is an event, a day of celebration!! the rain boots have been money well spent!
and all cole kept yelling was,
"SNOW-BALL-FIIIIIGHT!"
they made some snow angels...
and even had a snack...
we had a big egg breakfast, hot chocolate, photo shoot in the snow, played club penguin, and dried hats and gloves 3 times all before 10 am.
whew...
so in honor of all things celebration,
