(and a half). Now, imagine that sentiment screamed at full volume - over and over. My alternate title for this post was: Blizzard(?) 2007, or maybe the blizzard that never was but still closed Montgomery County from an early release on Tuesday through Friday. Combine that with a three day weekend and there you have it. And, to be honest, while the kids got a little cranky from an unexpected lack of structure, I love the anarchy that tends to come with a good snowstorm. Ice storms are a bit less fun, but it is good to stop life for a while.
After the ice storm on top of the snow, we had a crust that my rather tall husband could walk on with out leaving footprints. And you know what that's good for?
Penguin sliding! Emmy says, "It's always a good time play ball!"
What else is a snow storm (and a pretend snowstorm) good for? Throwing a party, of course! Conveniently, our great friend Mary O came down for a visit with her two adorable kids. She and her family had moved away to New England (now, they know how to have a snowstorm up there!) this summer and they have been greatly missed throughout the neighborhood. So, we have had much visiting and hanging out and Stitching and Bitching, of course.
