Snow Day!

We had a very unexpected surprise yesterday...a snow day! Although I had seen the "snowflake" icon on my weather app earlier in the week, we hadn't kept up with recent weather reports (we live under a rock sometimes when it comes to weather, current events, pop culture, etc) so we were totally surprised on Friday morning when snowflakes began to fall...and fall and fall! Michael's school let out early (although traffic was horrendous so it took him a while to get home) and we were able to spend the evening together enjoying the coziness and anticipating playing in the snow! A sweet friend gifted me with this ahhhhhhmazing Instant Pot earlier in the day, so I was able to whip up a quick beef vegetable soup and just be :) 

Making snow men was a HUGE hit. The above picture was from Friday night. Saturday morning we made two more snowmen (well actually one was a snow lady). I've never made a real, life-size snow man before so I had just as much fun rolling mine up as the boys did. Clara girl slept through all of the festivities. :)

And the best part of a snow day?

SNOW ICE CREAM!

We're thankful for this fun day. The Lord is powerful.

He gives snow like wool; he scatters hoarfrost like ashes.

He hurls down his crystals of ice like crumbs; who can stand before His cold?

Psalm 147:16-17
