Big Snow Day!

Snowmageddon/Snowpocalypse came to Michigan.  The first thing Brisco wanted to do on his snow day was climb the stairs.  He navigates up pretty well!
 The night before the snow day, I promised my students that Brisco and I would do all of the "rituals" to ensure we have a snow day.  This included having Brisco sleep in his pajamas inside-out.
 Other than inside-out pajamas, the rituals also included:
1.  Putting a white crayon in the freezer
2. Flushing an ice cube down the toilet
3. Taping a penny to the window
4. Walking around the dining room table 5 times
Luckily, school was canceled before any of the other rituals took place.  The next day, I reminded my students that we probably had a snow day because Brisco slept in his pajamas inside out.  They loved it!
The next morning, we put Brisco's pajamas on the right way and played!
 Brisco loves pushing his walker around.  He kind of looks like an old man! :)
 His favorite part of the day was watching Daddy shovel snow!
 He stood and watched for 20 minutes!
 He loved pounding on the window to say "hi"!
Daddy said Brisco will be helping to shovel snow next year.
 This pic is my favorite.  Brisco's thinking:  "Momma, it looks cold out there!"
We had such a great day!
