Our (NOT SO MUCH) Snow Day

Well, Happy New Year!! We are off to a new (much welcomed) NEW YEAR, and are hoping that 2010 will be much better than 2009 was. Although 2009 was quite a challenge for us, we have high hopes that 2010 will be filled will good memories, good health, and many blessings! Today, Lucas and I were out of school because of snow. The weather here has been tremendously cold (mostly in the teens...YIKES) and we got a good bit of snow yesterday. Now the roads are covered in black ice, and well, Georgia tends to shut down when there is any sort of frozen condensation on the roads...So all schools are closed...I would guess we got about 1 inch of snow total. However, this was still very exciting to Lucas since he has never seen snow before....how sad is that? The day off however is greatly appreciated. We went out this morning for a short while to play in the snow. We did not stay out long because it was 17 degrees!!!! Yikes! The snow was all frozen to the ground so we couldn't even make a 2 inch snow man, but Lucas had a blast pushing his cars around and making tracks in the snow....Shesa also had a blast slipping and sliding around on the driveway...which was pretty hilarious anyway..I imagine she must of looked as though she was wearing roller skates...although when she realized the snow was edible, that kept her focus until it was time to go inside for hot chocolate!!
