Snow Day!
The girls did indeed get their snow day today. While it wasn’t the snowfall totals that were being bantered about in the forecasts, the school did make the call around 10:00 pm last night. That in itself was awesome to be able to shut off all the alarms. Ray, however, did go in to work.
Both girls slept in very late despite not staying up really late. When they did get up, they began watching Prince Caspian together and had lunch. It was so relaxing and peaceful and I figured that I would at least take Phoebe out to play in the snow after…
…then I remembered…
…just because the schools are closed, does NOT mean that the dance studio would be closed. After all, their classes are later in the day–well after plows and salt trucks have been working.
So, right after Prince Caspian was over, we had to take Alex to her lyrical class. There was only one other girl that showed up to her class (the other class was very diminished as well). All was going well. In fact, it was almost like a semi-private lesson! That is, until Alex rolled her ankle over and went down at the end of class.
Nice.
After being home a while, icing her ankle, she went to theatre rehearsal with an ankle brace on (thankfully I had one lying around). There was only minor swelling and no bruising thank goodness. The next few days will really show though. At least the girls don’t have school tomorrow and Alex can rest her ankle a bit.
Phoebe did get to play in the snow for a little bit while Ray plowed the driveway (mostly) when he got home. I really wanted snow day photos, but did not end up with any this time.
