Our Last Snow Day-Hopefully



Don't get me wrong. I truly do love it when it snows in North Carolina, but for every day of school missed for snow the kids have to make it up. We already have two less days of spring break and two less days of summer vacation. If we have another snow day we will run into our Idaho vacation.

However, as far as snow days go this one was the best. On Monday March 2nd, we woke up to about 4 inches of snow. Enough to go sledding. Yeah!!! We started on our neighbors backyard hill, but that was not challenging enough so we headed off into a new area of our neighborhood where they have a huge hill. All of the girls, except Addie, went down it and loved it. Just watching them scared me to death. I was sure someone was going to get hurt. Eliza looked terrified going down, but kept begging to go so I guess it wasn't scary enough. Crazy, Crazy kids.

Not only did we miss school Monday, but they also called school off on Tuesday and had a two hour delay on Wednesday. Seriously people it's just snow. Then in true North Carolina fashion the weekend weather was in the high 70's. I guess you could say our March came in like a lion this year. Let's just hope it goes out like a lamb!!

I know what you mean. When you grow up in Idaho when a snow day means 3 ft and drifting, people closing down and having a fit over 3 inches seems a bit silly/.
