A Snow Day....

We got around 12 inches of snow last night so school was cancelled. Some moms complain about a snow day and I am typically no different except for today it fell on a Friday. The little boys don't have preschool on Friday so I have to drag them along to take Logan to kindergarten and that means 4 coats, 8 boots, 8 mittens, and 4 hats to put on along with 4 carseats to fasten. Then after only 2 1/2 hours I get to reload the triplets again to pick Logan up. Then we get home and the coats are dropped where they stand and the floor gets coated with dirty slush when they take their boots off...Not fun...and I can't do errands anyway so it is more convenient if we just stay home. Logan took the news better than expected and was fine until around 1 pm he started running around saying that we were going to be late! I reminded him there was no school and he went back to playing. Late afternoon I heard the boys yelling for me from the living room and I went in to see what was going on. The snowplows from the neighborhood had all converged right in front of our house. It was pretty exciting for the boys to have these huge machines parked right in front of the house. They got a great view and oohed and awed the whole time they were there! This will be one snow day that will be talked about for a long time!!
