Snow Day

It snowed in northern Oregon today!! And although schools were not on their regular schedule, my son had his work done by 10:30 am! He was very motivated. I told him he could play in the snow first, but he wanted his work out of the way.

The girls on the other hand, went out right after breakfast! (They are doing schoolwork this afternoon.)
The little dog ran around crazily when the snow was falling.

What is it about the white stuff that makes the world seem nicer, more peaceful, relaxed? Is it because my previously scheduled schedule is shot to pieces? Well, we still had a ballet class that the girl attended, and i was still able to return some clothes that were the wrong size. But watching the snow gently fall, well that made my day!
