Is winter over yet?!

So we have 3-5 inches of snow on the ground. I don't want to get out and measure it, but I trust the weather man. For once he was right this time.  Yesterday, every school within a 20 miles radius of Danville got out early because of the predicted snow fall. Well Danville didn't get out early, but all after school activies were cancelled.  I got the joy of calling all my after school kids parents and let them know that we were closing at 4:00 and not 5:30 like normal. I was scared I would be there till 5:30 anyways with a parent not knowing. But actually was only there is 4:30.  I was happy, because by the time 5:30 rolled around, several inches of snow on the ground and roads were very slick.

Hunter was at my mom's for the day and since I got off work early, I just left him there so Clint and I could go to the grocery store. Yes, we are the crazies who go to the grocery store with the threat of snow.  But this time, snow was already on the ground, but we had nothing to eat at the house!  Kroger wasn't that bad at all. We were able to get in and out quickly.  On the way to my parents for dinner and to pick up Hunter, we saw a car that had slid off the road, and then a box truck that had flipped over in the median. It was really scary.

While at my parents house for my mom's birthday dinner....I got the exciting text message from WKYT and then the phone call from Uncle Chuck, that school was closed today.  I enjoy snow days because I get to cuddle with Hunter, but then again I don't like them because we have to make them up when it's pretty outside.  Hopefully this is the last of the winter weather...o wait just saw the weather for this week and more snow on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday....WILL IT EVER END!?!?

Hope everyone enjoys their weekend!
