Surviving snow days

Here in the Portland-Metro area, we have had some serious winter weather. If you've never been to this part of God's country, you haven't experienced our varied terrain. I live at sealevel. We had 6 inches of snow, plus some drifts up to 8 inches. That was on Sunday. The kids did not have school on Monday or Tuesday for obvious reasons... the roads were ICY and such.
School was cancelled on Wednesday out of precaution.

Threats of another 4-6 inches for Thursday had officials cancelling school, again.
This was the sunniest, warmest no snow - snow day EVER!


I love my boys and our time together- however...I pray they go to school tomorrow. We all need one day of them at school before the Christmas break. The boys agree =)

I need them to go to see other people and interact with kids their own age.
I need them to go partake in any pre-holiday festivities and bring home projects they've been working on.
I need them to go because I am out of wine and Candy Cane Joe Joe cookies from Trader Joes.

(ps... new favorite wine...Silverlake's roza riesing or gerwertraminer)
