We had NO snow days built into the schedule last year, then we got dumped on several times, once resulting in an entire week of school being cancelled---bottom line, extra school days at the end of the year--BUMMER!!! So this year, the school district added 4 or 5 four day weekends to give ua a buffer. WELL, true to Flagstaff form, we had ZERO snow days this year, it did snow, just over the weekend EVERY time!! After a while it just became comcal as we drove up that trecherous CHerry Hill road to church--I LOVE having a suburban! SO, the district let us keep those four day wekends, kind of silly, I think we should just have been let out of school early. Whatever. ANyway, one such day, Dina was buried in homework, so the boys and we decided to go to the Lake for a picnic and a fun day. It was a BLAST!!!! Note to self for next time: Pack WAY more extra clothes for Rebekah. She fell in after about 20 minuted and it was SOOOOO cold. It was a very good thing I had a bag of clothes in the car for Goodwill, she needd them TWICE--yep, that's how many times she fell in.Pretty comical, but I don't think she laughed until MUCH later. Poor kid! Anyway, it really was so much fun and the kids had such a great time inventing games---being lifegaurds and saving countless lives seemed to be the favorite!! Rebekah was saved a lot---a connection with the dousing???? Hmmmm. :)
