Winter Wonderland Snowball Fight
We had two happy grandkids yesterday when they cancelled school after about 5” of snow.
This is the start of a fort that they decided was too much work to finish.
My cabana is getting it’s first dose of winter! I started to decorate it for Christmas. I ordered a light up star with nine strands of lights going from the star to the ground. Wouldn’t this make a great manager scene for Christmas, I could put a nativity scene inside it. I can’t wait to get power run to the cabana next year so I can light it up too.

Wow! Winter arrived early! We were surprised to see snow here in New England just before Halloween, so I wonder what the winter will bring all of us moving forward??! Enjoy! 🙂

We can’t complain here as the last 3 or 4 years have been so mild. It’s funny because now that I am retired it just doesn’t bother me. I try to avoid driving in it when I can. You really got hit with snow early!

I sure do know it! The excitement already just melts my heart. My 6 year old grandson is so excited and talks about Santa every day. We had the talk today to remind him the real reason we celebrate Christmas and that it wasn’t about the gifts. He must have forgot that part. Hahaha

How fun! Oh and you should have a Snow Party at the Cabana 🙂 It would be so cool decorated and lighted!

Getting workers to do work is so hard now with the pandemic. My cabana took 3 weeks longer to be made then they originally said. We have been hiring people to get things repaired around here and they are always at least a month behind. I decided to wait until next year to run electricity to it and I can’t wait to light it up! I do like your idea of a snow party though. A heater in the middle of the cabana and hot chocolate too! We have 2 1/2 acres so that could be quite a party…lol

The cabana looks so big at a distance! The kids look so happy playing in the snow and enjoying their snow day. I heard on the news today that Campbell’s Soup is launching a campaign to “Save the Snowday” … sounds fun. Will send you the link in another comment in case the link goes to SPAM.

The cabana IS that big, it is 12’ by 20’ and yes the kids had a blast.
Awesome I can’t wait to see what the campaign is, Campbells does some cute things. I think I should buy stock from them by all the cream soups I buy for cooking.😂

I lived too far from school until junior high, so I took the bus. I don’t really remember how many snow days we had, just that they were always welcome 🙂
