"Snow" Day

We received a sprinkling of snow dust this morning and in return the children of shelby county schools were lucky enough to receive a snow day. The kids were ecstatic for the less then inch received, and while happy to take any thing we can get, I'm very glad their memories don't include the snow amounts experienced while living in Colorado. We piled as much snow as possible onto the drive way and had a very successful hour of sledding, snow angels, and snowball fights.

We filled the rest of our day playing with the new legos from Christmas, cooking up yummy treats, and, making the best snowflakes in the world (thanks to various youtube videos). For being our second snow day since moving here I would have to say it was a great success. Hopefully Mother Nature will offer us one last opportunity before spring arrives.
