Yesterday we definitely awoke to a surprise snow day--I had no idea snow was even in the forecast, but there was an inch or two on the ground. By the middle of the day it was snowing like crazy!!! The snowflakes were huge, and it was beautiful!
I don't know if my children are crazy or smart, but they didn't want to play in the snow yesterday at all (I think because is was snowing so much)? That decision was fine with me until late last night when I began to feel guilty that I had not made them a snowman after seeing all of the area snowmen when we ventured out last night to 'drive in the snow.' Daddy is definitely still a teenage boy when it comes to 'driving in the snow'--he even asked the kids if they wanted to do a doughnut?!? They said yes even though they don't know what a doughnut is, but no worries, Mommy vetoed that real quick! :)
So snowday #2 began with Daddy going to work, the kids sleeping in and Mommy finishing 'The Lucky One' by Nicholas Sparks (really good read, by the way)! Waffles for breakfast and some cartoons, then the snow adventure. Play in the snow, snowball fight, and yes I even built them a snowman. It was however, not as big as Laynie would have liked it, but that's what Daddy's are for, right?
Who knows how many more of these lazy, I mean snow days we will get--but enjoy them with your kiddos. We are off to make Valentine goodies now--I'll post pics of those treats in a bit! Happy snow day to you!
