Schools let out around here about 11:30 yesterday. I couldn't leave until all of my students were safely off campus so Dad was "on-call" to get Brax off the bus. As soon as I left work I went to pick up the wild woman and we got home and relieved Dad. For hours we kept looking out the windows wondering where all the snow was the caused us to get out of school early. Brax asked over and over again if school was cancelled and I tried explaining that something needed to happen before we could cancel school. About 5 pm that something started and when the kids woke up this morning they were so excited about what was outside.
Braxton is experiencing his first snow day from school and Mckinley has just seen her first snow.
Because is snows so "much" around here neither of my kids have "snow gear" so we compromised and layered our clothes and wore bags on our shoes to keep them dry for as long as possible. We came up with our on version of a sled. My last words were "don't break it. That's a perfectly good box." Brax slid down great. I got in and got scared when I got half-way down and saw a car coming down the street. I literally busted out. So much for that box.
Whatever. It worked for a bit. Then we got cold and came on inside.
Fun stuff!!
