20 inches of snow...Happy Spring!


Wow, what a long weekend! If someone would have told me that we'd get so much snow this late in March, I would never believe them! But it happened, so tell me about your weekend. Did the snow ruin any of your plans, or were you just completely jubilant to get 2 1/2 more snow days this school year? What did you do to celebrate? (And how do you feel about school in June?)
