Snow Day!!

So we finally got some snow...yeah!!! It started snowing yesterday afternoon, and didn't stop until this morning. We got like 9 or 12 inches. I am so excited. I have been wanting snow so we could take the kids sledding. I think if there is still enough we are going to try and go sledding on Saturday afternoon. The schools got cancelled today, so I called in to work. Plus Jonah was up early this morning with an up set stomach. So we didn't get much sleep. He finally got to lay down and take a nap after the other boys got up. When he woke up he said he felt all better. So I am thinking it was just a quick stomach virus. But I am so thankful that it quickly went away. There was a point this morning after like our third trip to the bath room that Jonah told me that he felt like he just needed to be prayed for. It brought a smile to my face to know that he knows who to turn to when you need help. And of course I got down and prayed for him. But anyways I got him to eat some lunch and everything was fine. So we all took a trip out to play in the snow. Noah was so tired that he would take a step and fall face first into the snow. He would come up with an all white face. He didn't really enjoy it to much. Next time I'll have to make sure he isn't tired. And then Isaac and Jonah just got out there and played. They tried to make snow angels but it was to deep for them. They would lay down in the snow and sink to the bottom. It was funny to watch them. But we had lots of fun, and I look forward to even more fun in the snow.

Haha i would love to see your kids stuck in the snow trying to make snow angels lol! How funny. I'm glad your enjoying the snow. I always get worried when it snows. I don't like to drive in it and i worry for my husband driving to work =(. That is really sweet about Jonah asking for prayer.

I'm glad you got your snow! Hopefully your streets will be plowed so you can get around good. We don't get our side streets plowed when it snows here in ORegon, so we kinda get stuck! But, that is sweet that your little boy asked for prayer and he is all better. Hope whatever he had doesn't get passed around to everyone1

oh that looks like so much fun!!! I love snow. We finally had some snow, on top of ice :P But we only got like 2-3 inches. I had to work those snow days, while the kids were out of school, and didn't even get to enjoy the snow. But I am very glad you and your family had so much fun :) I love sledding!!!

How fun I wont to come and play. It is so sweet when the Lord builds faith in our childrens hearts and they trust God to heal him. It always builds my faith when my children ask me to pray about something. Love Stacie

Wow that is a lot of snow! We have been getting a little here too, but nothing close to that. Glad your little guy got over his stomach bug so quickly!
