Happy Birthday DH, 

your the best husband, father and friend and we love you....xoxo

Today we woke up to Snow, about 3-4 inches and it's still snowing...10:09am is the time.  I was going to go out and do the driveway but it's snowing still so I made Cream Cheese icing for DH's Carrot cake.  I'm thinking about making Sugar Cookies as well, then the kids can help me decorate them soon, need to pick up more icing sugar before that happens.

Today DD and I walked across the lake to the bus stop, the bus was right on time, and thats when things went wrong for the bus driver.... =(  he tried to turn around, the bus has built in chains at the back of the bus by the tires, but it didn't help, so he had to get out and try and put the chains on, that wasn't fun, he didn't have a flash light, so I turned my iPhone to movie camera and turned on the light, it helped alot, the bus driver told me he made a bet at the beginning of the year that he wouldn't have to put his chains on for this year.  Well that didn't happen, he eventually got one on, so he was able to get up the hill...and off to school they went...it was a long time, so the kids I'm sure were late for school.  Wonder how the ride home will be, I'm going to take some cookies for the bus driver, I was going to wait until next week, but it looks like a good day for cookies.... =) 

Well not looking forward to the snow shoveling...we did get money from our parents, maybe we should get a snow blower...maybe they wont even have any left...maybe I will email DH and suggest stopping at Lowes for a look at the snow blowers....to save my back....I need the exercise but that's a lot of back strain I don't need.

Well I will talk to you later, I'm sure the kids will be playing in the snow after school...snow just isn't right for making snow men though...have a great day
