So this is the view that I woke up to today......
How beautiful I know. I always find it so eerie when there is snow on the ground but the pond is not frozen over yet. It made me hum to myself all morning "I'm dreaming of a white Thanksgiving". I might not be the version that you are accustomed to, but here in the woods of Maine you never know when you are going to have a white Thanksgiving. Just one more thing to be thankful for.
Then for added excitement I had recess duty (yes, we went to school and no we did not have an extra hour to get ourselves there). To keep the snow on the ground and not flying through the air the other woman on duty and I decided to get the kids to build snowmen. It is amazing how entertained by snow 8th graders can still be. Here is my beautiful work of art (yes, those are pencil arms).
And then I just read today's Garfield comic, I think that it might just be mocking us all.

Oh, Garfield, you captured what today felt like. We were TOTALLY ganged up on!!
I believe it was my first year of teaching that our first snow day was the day before Thanksgiving... that was so sweet....
