Snow Days

Last Tuesday, the forecast predicted a very light snow, totaling less than an inch.  However, it turned out to be a much steadier snow that lasted all morning.  Our district, which has a reputation for canceling at the prediction of snow surprisingly remained open.  People were pretty upset about the school staying open.  There were a couple of buses that got stuck and some kids had a hard time getting home.  Thankfully, we didn't experience that.  However, the county had so many complaints that they later issued an apology.  Then, in their typical over reaction, they canceled school for the next two days with a delayed opening on Friday.  It had been very cold and the snow/ice hadn't really melted, but this was just too much!  These kids could have been in school.  On our second snow day, I invited a girlfriend of mine over with her son and then our neighbor's son also came over.  The boys enjoyed sledding in the backyard.

Brennan figured out how to zip down the backyard hill and steer his sled this year.

The boys had a lot of fun crashing into each other.

Tyler was having a blast as well, but I was more involved with pushing/pulling his sled and didn't manage to get many photos of the little guy!
