Snow Day


Well, an Ice Day really-but then again, not really? School was cancelled today because of Ice-you know how us North Texans FREAK OUT at the POSSIBILITY of ice on the roads. I don't freak out, but I do enjoy the freedom of a good snow day.

We tried to sleep in, but really that's impossible around this house. Grady was up and ready at 6:30 this morning. I'd already been up to check the school closings, so it wasn't COMPLETELY annoying. He settled into a "Dinosaur Show", and his Leapster Game...

Tanner took the opportunity to have a Wii Marathon. Guitar Hero, Wii Fit, Mario-something-or-other...you name it, and he played it.

Madison, the craft queen, finally convinced Tanner to play playdo; he was good for a while, but the Wii was calling his name. She was enthralled for a good amount of time, which was good-the mess was not so good. This is one of those things that sends Todd into a tailspin. :) All in good fun though. I keep telling him kids are messy.

Todd's on his way home now with Blockbuster Movies, and we plan to spend the rest of the afternoon indulging in Hot Chocolate and Popcorn while all of us snuggle by the fire. I'm not sure how tomorrow will end up, and the news is still freaking out about ICE! ICE ON THE ROADS!! If we get a few more hours of retreat from that real world, I'll take it.

And at 2:30 PM this afternoon, we are still hot. I think the A/C might have just cut on. The trees are starting to move so maybe it is coming this way. Enjoy the rest of your snow day(s) :)
