Snow Day

Today we got up to got ready to go to school. We drove through the 4 inches of snow on the ground for 20+ minutes and then we got to the school. We drove up to park and saw a sign that said "No School, snow day". We were already there and I was supposed to sub, so I wasn't the happiest camper. Plus it was the last day of the quarter and parties were planned, Lance worked really hard to earn the privillege to go to a special party today. Lance was upset and we had a horrific drive home in front of us, so I decided that I would call one of his friend's mom. They live close to the school so we went over and picked up his friend to spend the night. His friend has a little brother, so he came over also to play with Liam. This is what I decided to do with 4 boys stuck in a snow storm...I made them help me shovel the driveway. Sorry it was snowing so much you can't see their faces, but they are smiling. (Liam, Elliot, Oliver and Lance) They did a really good job and we were done in a half hour. It is really warm out so they stayed out and played in the backyard. The boys are staying until tomorrow morning, so it's off to find other things for them to do. (Not really, they are currently playing video games and they will do that all day if I let them and I just might).
