SNOW day

Friday was our first snow day of the school year.  It is definitely a different experience when my boys know I may have some input into whether or not we get to have a snow day!  Thursday night it sounded like a huge blizzard outside with winds howling.  In about 30 minutes our street and yard were completely covered.  My principal called about 5:30 am and we made the decision to cancel school for the day.  The boys were thrilled when they woke up and realized we hadn't gotten them up for school!

Because it was so cold (10 degrees but felt like -8 with windchill), we didn't actually play out in the snow until Saturday when we woke up to a few more inches!  They spent their day Friday playing, building Legos and vegging out - which was fine by me!

The boys helped Daddy shovel the driveway and sidewalk up to our house.

They enjoyed sledding and making snowballs.

Jake watched from the front door.  I was leaving to take Blake to a class in Louisville, so he didn't get to go play.  I'm hoping we have another big snow so he will get to try it out!
