Snowy Spring Morning

Kayla and I are sitting at the table on this, a declared snow day, at our house.  I'm not sure what she's working on but I decided to take a few minutes to blog.
The snow started Sunday morning.  It was sleet and cold rain when we left the house and during Sunday school it turned to snow and continued off and on all day.  Perfect for taking a good nap, reading, and just generally having a relaxing afternoon.  We made it out with some of our home group to do a Palm Sunday service of sorts at an assisted living center then back home for a movie for Brian and me- "Argo"- have you seen it?  Lots of language but an on the edge of your seat kind of movie.

This morning it has been lightly snowing and now the sun is peaking out.  So pretty.  The washer and dryer are buzzing away, the other kids are playing upstairs, and I have CC work calling my name.  But first...

I think the real reason they go out in the snow is to come back inside for hot chocolate.

At some point yesterday we realized Jack had used my broom, duct tape, a bowl, and a few other things to make a snow catcher.  He scrapes snow off the roof and eats it.  Or dumps it on people walking up to the door...

I was wondering if you would "call" a snow day there... as I went to work this morning in the slush. We've been cheated out of a good snow all winter long and you guys have gotten some good ones! Have fun!
