Snow, Snow and Snow Again!

We had another week of no school, lots of snow and crazy kids at home. This week another storm hit and instead of two inches of snow, we got four and then some ice. We were lucky and didn't lose power. The kids were out on Wednesday and Rob came home early, right before it started snowing, so he was fortunate enough to miss out on the commuting mess.


He just missed the mess of everyone leaving and cars being abandoned and the entire debacle of trying to drive in the snow in traffic. Yes someone caught their car on fire trying to drive up a snow covered hill.  Then Rob spent the rest of the day watching the traffic cams in the area and chuckling to himself. It wasn't the most productive of days for him.

The kids had fun sledding (though the last storm was a bit better--this snow was more slushy) building an igloo and having fun not going to school.

Tomorrow they head back on their first snow make up day for the storm two weeks ago. I don't know when or how we're going to make up the last week of school. Seven days in a year seems a bit extreme. I'm just glad spring is nearly here. We are going to be back up in the 70s this week, and I want it to stick around for awhile.

There really isn't much family news since our week mostly consisted sitting at home. Hope you all have a great week!
