Last night I went to bed thinking we would be getting the 2-4 inches of snow that was predicted. When I woke up I was giddy when I looked out the window. The predictions had changed to up to 10" at this point. Before the day was over we had a record amount of snow fall in Northwest Arkansas. It started snowing 2-3 inches an hour. At our house we got over 12 inches, but other places got up to 26"+ of snow! This is the most snow I have ever seen. It's crazy, but I love it.
The forecast eventually turned into this...
(See the royal blue-that is where I live.)
This is the 6th consecutive day of school we have missed now, and I predict we will not go for the rest of the week.
It is absolutely gorgeous outside! I love how calm everything is when a big snow comes. Calm except for the many birds who came to eat.
It was a relaxing day,
which included snow ice-cream.
I could not put the camera down.
At one point Daisy grabbed the ruler out of the ground. She was ready to measure the snow her way.
Cyclops was formed. This is the backside of our snowman. The 'eye' is the stocking cap that sat on top of the snowman.
Good thing Daisy sleeps in the room with the boys, however she loves the snow.
I followed with the camera.
What I saw next had me laughing for at least 30 minutes.
I am talking laugh so hard that my stomach got a workout...so hard, I HAD to sit down.
.
Our steps were covered. Michael missed the bottom step and just rolled. When I saw that smile and knew he was okay... I lost it!
His response was to give me a hug and say, "I love your laugh, so it was worth it."
Thanks for making me laugh today. Laughter is such good medicine!
