I guess we&#8217;re a little behind this year!  Today it has been snowing gently, but steadily, all day.  The forecast said 5&#8243;-10&#8243; total and I thought it was a bit silly to cancel school.  All the schools in the area are closed.  However, Alan went into work around 1:30 and says the roads are terrible!  He says he slid several times.  I think he&#8217;ll have a slow drive home tonight!  I guess the administration made the right call to keep the busses off the roads this afternoon.<\/p>\n<p>Back on the homefront we have been enjoying the day.  I exercised and made banana bread while the kids played together.  They have been getting along really well today.  After awhile we went outside for round one of shoveling.  <\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_11655\" style=\"width: 510px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/familyblog.datdec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/IMG_0940.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-11655\" src=\"http:\/\/familyblog.datdec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/IMG_0940-500x375.jpg\" alt=\"swings\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11655\" srcset=\"https:\/\/familyblog.datdec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/IMG_0940-500x375.jpg 500w, https:\/\/familyblog.datdec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/IMG_0940-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/familyblog.datdec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/IMG_0940-400x300.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-11655\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">All season swing set!<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_11656\" style=\"width: 510px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/familyblog.datdec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/IMG_0941.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-11656\" src=\"http:\/\/familyblog.datdec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/IMG_0941-500x375.jpg\" alt=\"car\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11656\" srcset=\"https:\/\/familyblog.datdec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/IMG_0941-500x375.jpg 500w, https:\/\/familyblog.datdec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/IMG_0941-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/familyblog.datdec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/IMG_0941-400x300.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-11656\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">I think she enjoyed this job a little too much. :)<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_11657\" style=\"width: 510px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/familyblog.datdec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/IMG_0946.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-11657\" src=\"http:\/\/familyblog.datdec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/IMG_0946-500x375.jpg\" alt=\"tired\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11657\" srcset=\"https:\/\/familyblog.datdec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/IMG_0946-500x375.jpg 500w, https:\/\/familyblog.datdec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/IMG_0946-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/familyblog.datdec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/IMG_0946-400x300.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-11657\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Whew!
