Snow but NO SNOW DAY

We haven't had snow in almost 2 years in Charlotte.  We didn't even get as much as a flake of snow last winter.  The kids new sleighs still have the tags on them from last year, just sitting in the garage.  But I don't think they will get to use them today.  It poured rain all day, really hard rain and then started snowing last night between 930-10pm, big beautiful flakes.  This morning when we woke, school was still on and there was no delay of start time.  Typically that isn't the case.  The hint of snow and the schools are closed.  But we have a new superintendent this year.  Only the grass was covered but the roads were clear. It is our first snow in our new house!
Ryan was off to the bus stop at 645am, so he didn't get to enjoy the snow but he did attempt to make a snowball but it wasn't snow you could even make a snowball with.  Too icy!  Justin and I went out to play a little in the snow, he doesn't catch the bus until 8am.  He tried to play basketball but the net was frozen solid and he had to use a bat to poke the ball up and out.

I even found a rose on one of my rose bushes still hanging in there.
