SNOW, finally!!

I didn't think we were ever going to get any snow, but we finally did today! Unfortunately, for some reason (**cough, MONEY, cough cough***) I still had to drive all the way to school. It was snowing when I was on my way this morning, and 33 degrees outside. The kids were decent, but definitely very excited about the snow. It probably didn't help, that a lot of the classes were going outside, and I was actually trying to get mine to work!(B/c our principal said to "keep it as normal as possible"). The really fun part was when the power went out around 10:15. Parents started coming to get their students, and were unable to find them in the pitch blackness, and the office was unable to figure out where they were, because they couldn't use their computers with no power! Needless to say, the people who make the decisions on when to shut schools down for weather, should have to come sit in a middle school in the pitch black for 2 1/2 hours and see if they make us come on a day like this ever again! We finally got out at 12:45, though. By this time there were probably about 4 inches at least of snow accumulated.It was so pretty! We came home and then when we woke up from our naps we went outside to play in the snow and build a snowman! It was super fun!

(As you can see in these pics, there is not 4 inches. It didn't snow as much at my house, as it did at school. Plus it had kinda already started to melt!)
