Yea! It's a snow day! Ok, well, not an official one. Jackson does attend a CPS school afterall. There needs to be 3 feet of snow and a windchill of 25 degrees below zero for CPS to call a snow day. But who cares? I'm the mom, and today, I decided it was a snow day! I didn't want to bundle up the kids and fight traffic, snow and slush just so Jackson could go to preschool for two and a half hours. So we decided to stay home and play!
So what do you do with an entire day when you just declared it a snow day? Well, you have a big waffle breakfast, and build an entire little people village. You then build a train track that encircles said village so the people can easily get from the carnival back home and then to the barn. You jump off of Jackson's bed into a pile of pillows. You play Dairy Queen and sandwich shop and break up several arguments about who should make sandwiches and who is in charge of the ice cream cones. You play naptime (yes, this is real game at our house!). If your name is Abigail Ann, you brush your teeth 6 different times. You chase the bad guy and then you become the bad guy and get chased. Then, after the bad guy game as incurred one too many injuries, you have a pizza picnic in the living room while watching Magic School Bus.
Hurrah for Snow Days!
