Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!

The first real snow of the season arrived during the night last night. What a way to start of the month of December! Schools have been canceled all over the place which is extremely rare out here. We had freezing rain last night though before the snow started falling so it is pretty dangerous out there. They are calling for 4-12 more inches before noon today. The only real bummer is that Trace's school Christmas program was tonight and he was actually going to have grandparents there. Now it is re-scheduled for monday and my parents are supposed to leave on Sunday evening. Of course that will depend on the weather now! Posted by Picasa
