The kids woke up this morning to a total Winter Wonderland. And the best.news.ever. A Snow Day! We were hit with about six inches of heavy, heavy snow (I should know....I had to shovel it!) and that meant that the buses weren't running. I remember quite fondly snow days when I was a kid. Felt like a total bonus day. Our kids couldn't wait to get outside and take it all in. So, I had them out helping me with the driveway before seven am. Then, we got them in the backyard so they could have a ball running around (and we could go inside and watch from the warmth). They got along so well and seemed to genuinely have a ball. I covered a "Snow Day" here on the family blog back in 2013 , but back then it was just Eloise and SD. Action shot:
