i have been waiting for several years for this kind of snow.
i LOVE snow storms.
i love snow.... love being stuck inside for snow days... baking on snow days... hot chocolate... hot coffee....snuggling under blankets...taking the kids sledding...watching our crazy dog run like a maniac.
it is all my favorite part of winter.
yesterday we had a little snow... not much.
and they called off school for today.
i said out loud many times "it had better be a huge snow storm if we are not having school!"
i got my wish.
our road was completely snowed in.
my kids thought it was very cool to be able to LAY DOWN in the road and not have to worry about cars coming.
and then they found deer tracks and got really excited.
i was very happy that mr. duerksen got snowed in today too!
we could not find any of our snow gear.
i think it's in the basement at the craft house.
oops.
but seriously it has been so long since we have had enough snow to need our boots and pants that i doubt any of it would have fit anyone anyway, especially my big growing boys.
so we had to just keep adding layers and use any gloves and hats we could find.
it worked.
remember we used to play that game called find-the-teenager.....
this is how snow gets removed when you live in the country.
:)
i had never thought about it until this morning.
scott and sean covered in snow from sledding...
and sean helping his sister put on her goggles.
and then this happened.... our road an hour or so later.
that is A LOT of snow!
and we are off of school again tomorrow.
i am excited about it.
we will definitely be getting crafty over here.
