::snow days and choo-choos::

Murphy asked me where all the snow was in my last post, so I thought I'd answer him. It's here--just not all the time! Last week we had two snow days. Or maybe it was week before last? Anyway, technically monday was supposed to be a snow delay, but since Max just had a half day anyway we took a full snow day. And then friday was very snowy in the morning. Most other schools didn't cancel, but Max's did. So there we were, snow days. Not a ton of snow, but snow days and bad roads nonetheless.

As you can see it was pretty soppy snow, whichever day it was that I took this picture. And it was SO cold, so the roads essentially just turned into sheets of ice. That's the scary part. Anyway, it was a snow day and Max and Sandy were driving each other nuts. I went and found the box of wooden trains that had been hidden in Max's closet for a long time. Sandy was in HEAVEN. "My doo-doos" he'd say. And ever since then anytime he wakes up he says he wants to go and play with his "choo-choos" (But it really sounds like doo-doos).


Now we need more track for all those trains!
