SNOW DAY!

It has been freezing cold in my neck of the woods! I mean freezing! I took Jordan to school yesterday and the thermometer in my van read -3. YIKES! And that was without the wind chill factor. Then we got dumped with a bunch of snow late last night into today. All area schools are closed so it's the first official SNOW DAY of the year!

I was up early to get the call that school was off then I had to text the other teachers and let them know. Then I laid back in my nice, cozy bed and checked facebook on my iphone and fell back asleep around 7:30. I should have stayed up when I got up at 6 but I didn't so therefore I slept in until.....I'm embarassed to say this but........um..........12:30PM! I know.....how could I sleep that late? I have no idea! It just happens! What can I say!

The nice surprise was when I did get up the boys had already shoveled the driveway, shoveled the perimeter of the front yard so Sunny has a path for the bathroom (that is Joel's idea...and believe it or not she actually sticks to the paths he shovels for her!) and were sipping hot chocolate at the kitchen table when I emerged from my master den. I told them Dad would be so happy with them, then they informed me they did it for ALLOWANCE! Guess they're both broke since they spent all their Christmas money so it's time to do work around the house and earn some dough $$$$. Joel will be happy non the less that they did do it and gladly give them their allowance. Now if only their rooms were clean!

Anyway, that's what's happening at my house right now. I hope if you had a snow day you enjoyed yours as well. I'm off to do some laundry! God Bless!
