The Blizzard

We were supposed to have a blizzard last week. It snowed but not blizzard worthy. This weekend it was just supposed to snow and we got the blizzard. In Virginia the schools would have been cancelled just because they thought it might snow. In Utah we go to school no matter what. We are like the postal workers. Not hail nor sleet or snow will stop us. We are the ones that invented walking to school in waist high snow butt naked uphill both ways.

It was so cute watching Karly try to get through the snow that was up to her knees. I was walking in front of the girls trying to forge a path but the snow was so powdery it just fell back into place. Both the girls were giggling and so excited to be out in the elements. Oh to be a kid again, I just kept thinking I hate snow, I hate snow, I hate snow. :)

Karly has been chosen as star of the week in her class. They are displaying a poster that we made of her and she gets to be teachers helper all week long.

Kassidy is suffering from a head cold. She is feeling pretty miserable but well enough to push Karly's buttons. :) Really she is off to a good start this week. She is eager to help around the house to earn extra money to buy Christmas Presents. She even cleaned up the kitchen all by herself and did a fine job. I was so proud of her and very happy not to have to do it myself.

I am getting some training on the kiln at the school. I am almost ready to fire it up and see what happens. I hope I can pull together the funds I need so that all the kids can do pottery this year.

That's all for now.
