Snow Day

When woke up last Wednesday, we discovered six inches of newly fallen snow. Boise is usually pretty temperate, so it was unusual to have a Snow Day, especially so early on in December---December First, to be exact. Mike worked a little from home and then decided that Highland Homes needed a Snow Day, too. Mike got up the gumption to clear the driveway. It took him an hour and he was soaked. That day marked only the second Snow Day we've had in 6 years. The kids were thrilled!



Our kids' elementary school has the best sledding hill in town. After getting some cleaning done, the kids walked around the corner to the school.
Let the fun begin!




Danny is not trying to make a Snow Angel. Danny is actually trying to go down the hill upside-down. Not sure if it is the safest thing, but he thought it was fun.




Good thing Santa brought everyone Snow Gear last Christmas. We didn't get to use it last year, but it sure has come in handy this year. Nathan and Danny both felt pretty adventurous trying out this Sled/Wanna Be Snowboard.


All of the kids were hoping for school to be cancelled the following day. One part of me hoped it was cancelled, too, but no such luck! I guess we all really enjoyed the day off.
