Snow Days!

I haven't had a snow day in years; since high school or maybe college. Had I stayed in Maine I would have had plenty this year, I think they have about 6 feet of snow (no joke). Here in Michigan, we had been having, what people called, "a pretty mild winter." That is until yesterday.

On Monday the news started reporting the snowpocolypse of 2011. They were saying 16-20 inches of snow would fall from Tuesday around 5pm til Wednesday (today) at 7pm. The city went nuts, schools were closing by 3pm, ACS had closed by 3pm. That is when the gittiness started, the "I don't have school tomorrow" excited feeling that I used to get as a school aged child came. I knew that I would work from home some.. in my pj's. So that night my roommate, Bonnie, and I decided to have some friends over for "the storm." Kristen, a co-worker/friend and Adam a friend came over for the night. We had pizza, played board games and just hung out. It was nice, I felt a little like a teenager again.

This morning I woke up to the smell of french toast and egg and cheese sandwiches. After breakfast we all buckled down and worked some; Bonnie, Kristen and I worked on ACS stuff, while Adam studied for the bar.


Bonnie made snow angles
 But don't worry we were not all work and no play, we also had some fun outside in the snow.

I shoveled!






Adam started snow fights.


Kristen looked cute:)

All in all it was a great snow day!
