Snow Day

We thought it would never happen. That was one of the "pros" of moving here, actually. But it did.

Snow Day.
This is what we woke up to this morning. I know all of you people who live in Utah are thinking, "What is that? A quarter of an inch?" Well, yes it is. And let me tell you all of the odd snow day events that occurred due to that quarter inch.
  1. I had to shovel my driveway. Good thing I kept my snow shovel. Actually I did about two passes and then thought "Aw, forget it. This will all melt."
  2. I saw other people shoveling their walks with brooms (like the poor Priests in our ward. Does the church not own a snow shovel?)
  3. I saw children playing in the snow in coats, gloves and shorts. Really? You don't own long pants?
  4. Families brought blankets to church to sit under. Adults. Not children.
  5. Church was canceled after sacrament meeting.
  6. All auxiliary meetings and tithing settlement were canceled.
Don't you think this is how snow days should always be treated? We hurried home, put on sweats and will sit the day out with a fire in the fireplace and Super Smash Brothers on the Wii.

Jonah, the ever obedient, was a little disappointed that there would be no lesson today. Luckily Amy had prepped a lesson for her primary class, so they went ahead and had primary on the living room floor.Noel took advantage of the opportunity to play video games. Which I suspect he will do ALL DAY long.

Happy Snow Day!
