Snow Day
On Wednesday, March 23rd, our morning began with a cell phone buzzing. Seminary was cancelled. Shortly later came the call that school was cancelled. A peek out the window showed maybe a half inch of snow on the ground but snow was falling steadily, and weather reports were calling for a blizzard that would last the entire day.
By the afternoon, we had almost two feet of snow on the ground outside our front door! The kids had a blast building forts and caves that afternoon.
A neighborhood squirrel came around looking for a warm nest and discovered my Halloween craft pumpkin on the shelf just outside our patio door. He proceeded to chew a hole in it, dig out the stuffing, and spent the next couple days warm and snuggly inside it, with just his tail sticking out. We named him (or her) Nutmeg.
