that vision thang - SNOW DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was up early checking school closings early on, and my school was open, along with the local school district, even though the Philadelphia parochial and other charter schools were already closing left and right. I actually showered, got the Flowers out to the car along with all the crap I brought home to grade in anticipation of a possible snow day (thanks to the help of Hubby, who also very sweetly cleaned off my car of snow for me), and got started on the way in when I got a text message from the principal letting me know school was closed. Having gone only four or so blocks, trudging along at fifteen miles an hour and sliding three times, I was happy to turn back. (And the principal also very nicely called me directly to let me know, since she knows how early I leave and that the closing hadn't been posted on KYW yet, as I pulled back up in front of the house.)

The Elder Flower has been waiting all year for enough snow to play in, and there will certainly be enough out there. The challenge now is keeping her calm until it warms up a little (before it turns to freezing rain) and the snow itself slows down a little. And to give me time to empty my camera so I can take more pictures of my cute little ones.

***And here are Little Flowers playing in the white stuff while Hubby shoveled.*****

Finally got pics of that Q and U wedding downloaded. Here's the Elder as a Q Bride, and my limited baking ability-produced (with Elder's decorating help) Wedding Cake.

And in finally emptying my camera, I found the cutest pictures of Younger. Elder still goes to dance class; Younger gave the class a couple of shots before we just kept her home, as she wouldn't dance or leave my side. But every Monday, as Elder gets dressed for class, Younger insists on doing so as well. One week it started a whole hour of dress-up for her, and this is how darn cute she was.
