Snow Day

It began to snow on Friday, February 3rd

and kept coming down most of the weekend.

The last time I remember getting so much snow is in 2008, 

when I had just began to blog, and it was great to have a place to check back to!

By Sunday evening, I knew there were going to be school closures 

so I began to formulate a plan to make the most of the inevitable.

I invited just the school kids . . . a little tricky when there are two-year-olds 

who may get wind of what they are missing out on . . . but somehow it worked.

It did not take long to figure out that the piled up 

snow heaps from shoveling, were the best for making caves.

or tunnels.

While I flipped a tripple recipe of crepes, they laughed at Mr. Bean.

And after lunch, we headed out to the hill on the school playground.

Natalie and Lacey made one dash to the slope . . .

I heard them screaming all the way down.

Landon made the most of it as well

 while I was laughing at Teddy and Koen

trying to make their way to the teeter-totters

nearly burried in the snow.

It took some coaxing to get everyone marching back

when Kristal came by with the car, looking for her kids.

That is when she decided to take this photo.

I hope we were able to make it a day to remember!
