Snow Day!

I have to admit that when I first woke up this morning I was wondering what all the fuss was about.  I thought the storm had missed us and I was surprised when everything was closed.  It had snowed but it didn't look that bad and it really didn't look like it had snowed enough to be a snow day.  As the day wore on though the flakes got bigger and we had to shovel a few more times.

We actually didn't take a day off school (what a mean teacher I am!) but we did finish early enough in the afternoon to head out to the toboggan hill for some impromptu fun with friends.  It was my friend's idea to take our kids to the hill and we had a blast!  It seemed like the whole town was there!  I love that the people in our community close the schools and can't make it to work because there is too much snow but everyone can make it to the hill!
Me- All bundled up and ready to go!

Shelly and I - Whose idea was it for us to go down the hill??

Here we go! Racing the kids!

I have not laughed so hard in a long time!  
If you got a snow day in your neck of the woods I hope you got to spend it with family and good friends and much laughter too!

  3. Looks like fun Kim. I was a "mean" mom and sent the kids to school even though the rest of the street took the day off of school. Great pictures! Julie
