Where For Art My Snow Day?

Last weekend I was super pumped to wake up to snow!  Since it was Saturday, we stayed in our jammies and watched Netflix untill I couldn't stand it.  Then I made Geoff layer up and head outside!  We romped around with Roscoe and made a snowman.  We attempted to sled, but with our make-do-storage-tub-lid sled, we weren't too successful.  None the less, we had a blast!  The only bummer was that the snow came on a Saturday and we couldn't have a snow day.  So this morning when we woke up and I checked my phone and Facebook, I was super bummed to read about the excitement and joy of the snow day back home in Joplin.  We got snow today.  Our roads were really slushy and not even plowed, but we trooped out there just to get our students the education they need. Joy.

I've been praying for quite a while now that we could get at least one snow day.  In our school calendar there are 5 built in snow days, weather we use them or not, we are still going on those days.  Soooo, why not use one or two.  So far Jesus has answered my prayers with a "not right now" answer, but I'm keeping my fingers crossed on Wednesday when we are supposed to get our next round of snow!



On another note, last week we got to go to the Nebraska vs. Michigan game.  And of course Michigan won and Geoff was in hog heaven.  I just hope that someday we can make it up to Ann Arbor to see Michigan on their own turf.  I'm kinda of surprised to say that I'm sad we have gone to all the basketball games we got tickets for this year.  I really enjoyed going to the games.  I didn't get to just watch football/basketball games in high school and college so being apart of the crowd was a new and fun experience!



GO BLUE!
