Last year we had two big snows in the month of January, so we have been patiently waiting for some winter weather this year. The kids like the idea of snow, and I like unexpected days off and watching The Weather Channel. We were out of school Monday for Presidents' Day, and the snow started falling that afternoon. It began to stick immediately and soon after we knew we would be home from school Tuesday. We ended up getting 5-6 inches, but sleet and freezing rain packed it down and made it crunchy. It was still plenty for some sledding and some digging.
The years we buy snow clothes we get no snow, so we are usually very under prepared. Thankfully a snack by the fire will warm you right up.
We were home Wednesday but inside since Avery started with the stomach bug Tuesday night. Luckily we're home again today, although this mama is hoping to bust out for some adult interaction. Now that we've had our snow I'm officially ready for spring.
