Snow! Snow! Snow!

Of course my kids are THRILLED that we have a snow day. Any time they can wake me up when I don't really NEED to get up is a great day for them. They did the happy dance at 10pm last night when we saw our town listed on the closed schools roster. So then did they sleep 'till 9???? NOOOOOOOO!

I was also hoping that the hubster would stay home, given that he worked all day Saturday, but 'twas not to be. The slave ship he works for needs every able body to pull those oars (remember that scene in Ben Hur? "RAMMING SPEED!" BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!)

So I am home with the kiddies. Right now they've spilled every little piece of GI Joe and Legos all over the playroom floor. Then they want to go out and build a snowman and have me CHAINSAW HIS BODY PARTS OFF! Nice huh? I said no to the chainsaw but agreed to plant some firecrackers on his head. Ya gotta draw the line somewhere!

I didn't mind today too much. They are all frolicking outside and it's good for them to get fresh air and exercise. Speaking of, I used my snowshoes for the first time and WOW....it was a great workout!!!! I sweated about a gallon off. I then followed it up with a nice soak in the hot tub. Can't beat that! I am starting to like winter!!!!!
