Blizzard of 2008

Thank you blizzard of 2008 for cancelling Cassidy's birthday party! I had to move it to next Sunday and my mom has surgery on Friday so she'll still be in the hospital and won't be able to come. As of this morning, we are now downgraded to a level 2 snow emergency. Still can't see the pavement on the roads though so I'm not sure how that qualifies us to be downgraded when we are still driving through thick snow on the road. Whatever. Back to Cassidy....we let her open up 1 present since yesterday was her birthday and original party day. I put up a the happy 2nd birthday banner and dressed her in her birthday party outfit and took pictures. She opened her Little Einsteins Rocket with the people in it and loves it! To quote her as she opened it she said "Awesome". The boys say that all the time so she's picked it up too. We still made it a fun day for her even if she couldn't have her party. We are planning on going sledding and building a fort today. Ok, it seems like a lot of my blogs lately have been about snow. Who would have ever thought we'd get this much snow this year though. We couldn't go out yesterday because it was blowing too much and Cassidy can't walk out there unless Richard clears a path for her. Brenden went around the corner to his friend Micah's house and the snow was up to his knees. That was funny seeing him get there. I'm happy that it didn't hit during the week so Brenden doesn't miss more school that he has to make up at the end of the year because we leave right after the last day of school for vacation. We won't be home for the makeup days and the principal has to approve a vacation if it is during school time. Well, it wasn't supposed to be, but now it is and they said it must be approved. Again I say, Whatever! No reason to not be approved unless he's missed a lot from being sick and he hasn't. More to come this week.......
