Snow night!

School has been delayed 2 hours twice a week from the last 2 weeks for possible icy conditions that were never icy! Yesterday they cancelled school entirely for an impending "major snow event" that forecast 2-4 inches for us.  It rained all day...until it finally turned to snow at 6:45!!! 

We flew outside yelling "it's snowing it's snowing" - and it was. Big huge fluffy nickel sized snow flakes. Gage went crazy!!  Before bed last night he told me that it was the best day of his life :-)
Snowball fights...

And perfecting his snow ball making skills were the name of the game.
What a fun night!! We ended up with an inch or less, and it started melting that night. It's all gone now,  But..he had another 2 hour delay today, so he played outside today until I dragged him in to get dressed for school. 

His poor sister was in bed nursing a fever of 102 since last night  :-( Apparently there is a "fever big" going around (who has heard of such a thing??). But, that's what she seems to be down with. Just a fever, feeling tired, and a headache that comes and goes. She is suppose to have a sleepover party here tomorrow, but that may have to be cancelled. We'll cross our fingers that she wakes up at 100% tomorrow!
