The Art of a Good Snow Day

There are many ways to enjoy a good snow day!  Here is how we spent ours:

1.  Gaze at the snow in wonder as it falls
2.  Have a victory smile when Mom tells you school has been cancelled
3.  Smile as everything looks so clean and bright
4.  Let the boys go outside despite the fact that they don't own snow boots
5.  Smile at the fact that you aren't spending money on gas today
6.  Make the boys come inside and stick their numb feet in some warm water
7. Fry up some pork chops...yes, fry them up because calories don't count on snow days
8.  Make snow ice cream and sing Michelle's praises for bringing you Eagle Brand despite the slick roads...and lick the Eagle Brand can because calories don't count on snow days
9.  Smile as you remember when your Mom made snow ice cream...and laugh when it feels just like yesterday
10.  Start the laundry of all the snow clothes
11.  Watch the biggest boys try and put together a very challenging puzzle

12.  Prepare to watch good movie

How did you spend your snow day?

Cleaning. I've managed to get rid of 4 large trash bags full of clothes. Now- Who can I hire to have a garage sale for me?!
