...of a White Christmas!
We woke up to a 15 inch blanket of beautiful white snow!

Our poor ugly bush that blooms once a year.
Yesterday, before the snow got heavy I had decided that it actually looks pretty twice a year.
In the late spring when it blooms and when covered with a light fresh snow.
I am afraid that the evening snow is too much for it.

My hubby out shoveling for the 2nd time today!

After driving Tommy 3 blocks to school, it took 15 mins to do so, we discovered that they had cancelled it.
YEAH, snow day!
Milo was beyond excited that he got to have a " SNOW DAY!"
Which totally surprised me.
We always get snow. I think that they decided to just break early for the holiday.
So what do you do on a snow day?
You bundle up and play........
I didn't have to go to work until 1pm so why not.
First off, we built a huge snow fort.
It is imperiative to have one when having a snow ball fight.

Then onto a backyard sledding hill for Lil'.
I am so glad, that I took the time to play today.
I love you Milo and Lily!
As we tuned towards the sound we witnessed a tree caving under the weight of the heavy wet snow.
A creek runs along our backyard. One of the trees on the creek bank fell into the the neighbors fence across the way.

Thanks to my moms prayers.
