14/365 January 14, 2009 "Snow Day!"

Yes yes indeed the very first official snow day of the year. 15 cms of snow followed by 10mms of rain...it made for a slushy, wet, miserable old day but let me tell you...there were smiles on top of smiles in my house. Snow days are common around here but to my boys - each one is as exciting as the first.

Now of course we already had snow on the ground as you can see in yesterdays picture. But that all fell gradually, little bits here and there and certainly nothing big enough to cancel school for the day. That's what made today exciting. It was funny too because when I woke up this morning it was clear as anything and right before bed last night Will said "I hope it is a snow day tomorrow!" so I was disappointed that there was no snow. But lo and behold, the school board jumped in fast and cancelled school due to inclement weather. WOO! you gotta love a proactive school board. LOL!
