Snow Day!!

Welp, a snow day is no longer a snow day... for Mom at least! I have a virtual day - but I'm so happy with it! I get to sit at home and work on paperwork all day! Wahoo!! I LOVE the snow. I would love to play in the snow, but the kids don't want to, boo hiss. They had to shovel though because they had an actual SNOW day so I (literally) forced them to go out and shovel!


Good job kids! Clean that driveway so Dad can get back home!






Yes, stand together and smile please!


Mom got the fixings for hot chocolate ready for the chilly kiddos!

Morgan offered to give me a make-over. Yes please - just to get to spend time together!

First snow of the season!

Yay!  Snow! Even better - snow day for both the kiddos and I!  NO virtual learning! Yipee!


First cleared off the steps for the puppies then enjoyed a quiet cup of coffee (or two) before going outside to work on the driveway!



Time to head outside! I snow-blowed the driveway and cleared the cars while the kiddos built an awesome sledding hill with a hill (hump) to get some air and then created a huge snowman!








I was so excited to see snow!  I absolutely love snow and today was just the pick-me-up I really needed!  I was starting to get down in the dumps with all that has been going on even though I am trying hard to stay positive!  Today was just perfect!

Another snowy morning!

I could get used to a coffee and a book mornings!

Snowy Morning

Momma on a snowy morning... turned snow day...
A few quiet minutes before the kiddos realize it's a SNOW DAY!

To do... or not to do...

Snow Day x 6

Feeling a bit like this today...

"...But sometimes I like to close my eyes,
and imagine what it'd be like when summer does come. ah.

Bees'll buzz, kids'll blow dandelion fuzz
and I'll be doing whatever snow does in summer.
a drink in my hand, my snow up against the burning sand
probably getting gorgeously tanned in summer...

I'll finally see a summer breeze, blow away a winter storm
and find out what happens to solid water when it gets warm!
and I can't wait to see, what my buddies all think of me
just imagine how much cooler I'll be in summer...

dah, dah, da doo, uh bah bah bah bah woo...

The hot and the cold are both so intense
put 'em together it just makes sense!

rrr, raht, da, daht, dah, dah, dah, dah, dah, doo

Winter's a good time to stay in and cuddle
but put me in summer and I'll be a ---- happy snowman!

When life gets rough, I like to hold on to my dream,
of relaxing in the summer sun, just lettin' off steam...

Oh the sky will be blue, and you guys will be there too
when I finally do what frozen things do in summer!"


Now don't get me wrong, I LOVE snow!!  I really really do!!  I have loved snow since I was little and my love has not gone away... that being said... I am sad when days are added onto the end of the school year!  It is super sad to see the end of our school year creeping later and later!  Luckily today I already had off... but the kiddos had a snow make up day today... jokes on us (a day late!)  Thanks Mother Nature!! Guess they will now have a 'snow make up day - snow make up day' added onto the end of their year.  They will go out and play in the snow today for sure!!  Make the best of that white stuff we have in April!!  :)

Snow Day #5

Ok, ok, ok!  Mother Nature... today is the second day of Spring.  Put the snow away and bring out the sun!

But for now... no reason to moan and groan... 
if you can't beat Mother Nature, join her!





Momma's creation!  2 hours of hard work!
The wind knocked it over once, but perseverance and it came back together!





And ending the day with some homemade cookies... yummy!

Snow Day #4

Lots of snow coming down... I love snow days... just wish my district would make up the days in the school year, not add them to the end of the year...  oh well.  Can't do anything about it, so...

Do you wanna build a snowman?

A little work first while the kiddos are still sleeping...

Start the snow fun!





Daddy had to work today, glad he made it home safe!
Now he can take over from plowing from Momma!


Snow puppy!






Snow much fun today!
