Snow Day

Winter Storm 2011!!!!  That's two storms in less than a month's time!  What an unusual happening in South Carolina.  We're thrilled though, that makes it a three day weekend for Josh!!  He got up this morning, took his shower and then assessed the weather.  There was snow on the ground and it was coming down pretty heavy, plus it was supposed to turn to ice later.  Just not worth going to work....so back to bed he went.

We took Jack and Ewan out in it to play and of course they liked it.  Well I should say Jack LOVED it, Ewan liked it for a couple minutes.  We drove up the hill in our neighborhood and they sledded down on their teeter totter!!  They also played with a friend who LOVED it too!!  Josh drove up and down the hill several times to make a great path for the sled, nice and slippery!

Ewan sat in the car for a while to stay warm, Sean napped in the sling and Jack sledded.  It was great fun for a while until Jack hit frozen cold meltdown.  We drove home and had hot chocolate.  It took Jack a good long while to stop whining and screaming but we're all fine now!  Once he warmed up finally he was ready to help Daddy make snow cream.

The boys are enjoying having Daddy home again (though he's in manland right now).  I'm glad he's home too.....all is good as long as we don't lose power.  We do still expect ice, so anything is possible.  Maybe we'll get out later to make a snowman, assuming it hasn't turned to ice.

Trip to the beach??  Or "sled" on the roof??!!
