"Just a light dusting..."

That's what Skip McBride said on the 10 o'clock news on Wednesday night. "Not much of an accumulation. Just a light dusting on the grass, but no worries." He went a little too easy on the forcast before the "Christmas blizzard" and then again last week, but... Do they ever fire weatherman for being wrong too often? I guess not, but sometimes they are sure WAY OFF!!! But I'm not complaining because it certainly was beautiful snow with HUGE snowflakes, that fell non-stop for over 12 hours! We stayed in school all day Thursday, even when everyone else was letting their students go home, but hey, we were already there, so might as well use the teaching moments, right? We did wait until 10 a.m to start on Friday. I could definitley get used to that!

This is a picture of our backyard on Friday morning. The other one is a picture of Cody in the backyard before we left for school. He took the ruler out to measure and we had 6 inches where he was squatting. He didn't play out in the snow though this time, it was just way to cold and windy!! Anyway, guess next time they predict snow we'll know not to believe what they say! It melted quickly though, and in a few months we'll all be wishing we had some of this moisture around us. Just helps you remember what a great and powerful God we have and the miraculous things He can do. Not to mention the beauty of it all!
