Snow Day

Winter is officially here {photos from last week}.

This snow day could be any ordinary day for the next 7 months … *sigh*.

… just thought I’d explain that in case you thought the title of ‘snow day’ meant that the schools were closed. HA! I don’t think they’ve done that since I was a kid.

Now it’s like: “Oh, it’s -40 degrees? Come to school!!“. <~ said in my stern voice, obviously.

Recall my new deck from my fantastic backyard renovation? Yeah, it’s now almost buried in the white stuff and not so fun for me lately {Summer BBQ’s, I miss you!}.

So, for the Winter months, the deck is now the kids play area.

These photos were taken with the Canon EOS Rebel SL1, what a fire-cracker! I take it everywhere since it’s so lightweight and I’m still am so amazed by all the features.

Good time for a reminder: If you are Canadian, make sure to stop by and enter to WIN a Canon EOS Rebel SL1 Prize Pack for yourself. It has a MSRP of $1009! 😉

    Wow, did you ever get some snow! We are having a late fall heat wave here in Phoenix with highs reaching records at over 90 degrees. It’s pretty gross. Maybe I should share a touch of my heat and you can share a touch of the cold and we’ll even out?

    Were you able to get all of your summer stuff put away? I would really love it if you could ship some of your cold weather and snow to us, and I’ll return to you fair weather and 79 degrees!

    Cute photos! My town still freaks out and closes school over a little snow. But my day job is at a newspaper, so I still have to work when it is bad and the state says to stay off the roads. 0.o

    Love the post an photos…you are making good use of your camera. It is nice to look at the snowy pictures because in Victoria, if it isn’t raining, the sun is trying to shine. Yesterday there was a rainbow after a short downfall. I hope it snows for Christmas but I won’t hold my breath.

    Love the pictures, even though your nice new deck is covered in snow, the snow looks so pretty and white. Right now, its melty and muddy, my least favorite part… We are supposed to get dumped with more tomorrow though!

    Snow came earlier than the last few years here…More like the “good” old days. Not even December yet and I’m over it!!! Children have a better attitude about it though…lol. Seeing your girls reminds me so much of my twin nieces bundled up so I most definately couldn’t tell them apart!

    The deck looks like a great place to play!

    I don’t know about with your school, but a few days a year, the buses are cancelled here (but the schools remain open), due to weather conditions. Almost no kids come to school at the high school level, and many elementary kids stay home too. All staff must report to work, though.
