All grown up and going to the prom

Savannah looked beautiful for her prom last night. She's grown into a lovely young woman. I'm so proud of her.

Our official engagement picture. The wedding is just a month and half away. I'm so looking forward to it. It's going to be such a joyous day!

Snow day on April 9th... Nice.

I was beginning to think we were going to get through this school year with no snow day.. but here we are. A snow day and there is barely any snow on the ground. It's cold and icy, so I know that's why they called it. Mark and I are enjoying a relaxing morning, sitting around drinking coffee and talking. Later we'll head on over to the gym and get a workout in. I like unexpected little surprises like this. A snow day is always a nice surprise. I didn't think so when the boys were little and I wasn't teaching yet. I had to make plans for daycare for them then. That was not fun nor easy. I usually ended up taking a sick day to stay home with them, but I rarely had any sick days available to me.. because when the boys were sick, I had to use them to stay home with them then too. But, now that I'm a teacher, I love these snow days. I do feel for all the parents out there that have to make arrangements for their children today. It's not easy and can be extremely frustrating. Snow days... One of life's little ways of saying.. take it easy.. have some fun.. sleep in... read a book for fun... get in a few more kisses with your hubby (or soon-to-be hubby)... cozy up and watch a good movie.. Or.. get your butt over to the gym and work off that birthday dinner you ate on Sunday night. :) Happy snow day!!!
