Snow Days

by Cindy on January 31, 2011

Hello! Have you had a few days like this too? I hear the people up in Vermont have had twice this amount of snow. And then there’s those out West who are reporting balmy weather. It has been several snow days off from school for us. Can you see my 6 year old son there seemingly singing praises for an unexpected 3-day break!? 🙂 We are going back to our routines though on Monday. Our midwinter break was fun while it lasted!

Erin Prais-Hintz January 31, 2011 at 1:36 am: Oh Cindy! Your photos always warm my heart.
I had 235 pictures on my camera since Christmas and just about every single one of them was of some sort of jewelry. That camera never sees the light of day. I really need to do that more often. And your family is SO photogenic. I have to think that they get that from you…

Enjoy the day!
Erin

P.S. I am getting closer to deciding about DC in March!
Renate January 31, 2011 at 1:43 am: I remember, in some long ago distant time, I used to love to play in the snow. Must have been a former life, LOL!
Glad your kids are enjoying it.
Stefanie January 31, 2011 at 5:03 am: Lately it was a little bit warmer around here, this morning it was snowing so no spring in sight:-) Your pics are great! Looks like a lot of fun!
mary harding January 31, 2011 at 6:09 am: Your children are so happy in the snow. Wonderful photos. For some reason the storms have passed us by so far this year. The newest one on its way by mid week may be different. We do get snow but just the gently falling pretty kind that doesn’t close schools. Although last week all the schools were closed on Monday because it was 25degrees below zero. Now that is cold!! Have a great week Cindy.
Carol January 31, 2011 at 6:32 am: Don’t know if it’s the lighting, photographer or the subjects. The photos ROCK!
Nancy January 31, 2011 at 7:10 am: Those are great snow day pictures! We are in for probably two more snow days this week. Good luck getting back to normal!!
Laura January 31, 2011 at 9:35 am: Great photos, especially love the last one, glad you will be in class with me! I think more snow/ice is on it’s way this week so you may rack up a few more snow days before it’s over!
Alice January 31, 2011 at 9:36 am: We’re off today, but because of ice rather than snow. But the snow is coming, and lots of it —they say. My youngest is elated!

Sweet photos!
Libby January 31, 2011 at 10:39 am: Ahh this brings back such great memories from when my kids were young. Thanks for the pictures they are so wonderful
Madeline January 31, 2011 at 11:18 am: I was hoping I wouldn’t be disappointed to find no pictures on your blog! Beautiful colors! Snow days are fun for kids. We expect about 2 feet of snow starting tomorrow so we have a 6 yr. old coming Tuesday evening to spend the night! surely there will be a snow day on Wednesday and mom will only have to dig herself out and get herself to work! Aidan and I will be making snowmen and maybe even sledding at Hemlock park, if I can get there! Keep warm and safe. And please continue to post pictures!
Lori Anderson January 31, 2011 at 2:37 pm: Luckily, my hubby gets snow duty — I just have never been a winter sports person!

Awesome photos!
Janet McDonald January 31, 2011 at 3:17 pm: I laughed when I saw your pics especially the middle pic with your littlest one!
Their Joy is infectious lol What happy days and alot of snow Cindy!
Becky Caldwell January 31, 2011 at 4:19 pm: Great Shots! I love these! 🙂
Kayla January 31, 2011 at 6:53 pm: 3 days!? WOW, I can totally see why they’re all smiling from ear to ear xD

I’m hoping for a snow day this Wednesday! I guess we’re supposed to be getting a MAJOR storm-My mom even told us that this storm is a once in 30 year deal 0.o

Hope you guys are staying warm!
Shelby January 31, 2011 at 7:25 pm: Great pictures Cindy! I’m sure the kids really enjoyed their break:) Fun! Fun!
Beth Bricker January 31, 2011 at 9:29 pm: Fun,fun,fun, they will remember these days forever. Somehow when you are a child snow is much more fun than now as a 40 something adult. We are expecting to get 12-18 inches tomorrow night and in to Wednesday. I hope is misses us again, so far we’ve been lucky in Michigan, only small amounts of 1-3 inches each time it snows. We may have 12 inches total on the ground now, but it’s settled.
Riki Schumacher February 1, 2011 at 2:34 am: Darling! Uh oh, looks like more snow on the way, sitting here watching the weather. Hugs, Riki
Patty February 1, 2011 at 12:47 pm: My kids are crying because our snow is TOO DEEP – they can’t even move !!! We have a 12-15 foot pile in the street and are in the process of converting our wood frame it an igloo….. SEND HELP!!! LOL I don’t even know if they will have school for the rest of the week……send liquor too……
esther February 3, 2011 at 3:36 am: so funny!! here no snow.. your pictures are beautiful!
