We were forecast to get some freezing rain today with areas
north of the city getting up to an inch of snow.
The sleet started at 9:15am.
Ummm . . . here are the girls and our neighbor at 1pm.
That's a bit more than freezing rain! About 6" more actually. Needless to say the girls were thrilled even if it meant that Brenna had to miss a scout event today that she was looking forward to. She loves the snow so this was a fair enough trade for her!
It was good heavy snow - perfect for playing and building. The kids set out to make the world's biggest snowball and came pretty close. This is about halfway . . .
They (with some help from the photographer!) eventually got it as high as Brenna's nose before it got too heavy to roll.
We finished the day with a birthday party for their friend who luckily lives right down the street so the show went on despite the weather. So now we wait to see what the decision will be for school tomorrow. The road crews got a late start clearing things so the kids may have a day off potentially or a 2 hr. delay at least. I'm hoping for just the delay though so their dance classes aren't cancelled too. The teacher promised photos of Molly's class' costume and I really want to see it!
