Today we woke up to snow here in Baton Rouge. This is certainly a rare occasion. This is only the second time it has snowed in the ten years I have lived here. Last time it was only about an inch or so. This time I think we had at least 3 or 4 inches.
My kids were thrilled when they heard school was canceled due to snowy weather and outside they went to play. I can honestly say all those years growing up as a kid in Sweden. Not once was school canceled due to snow. On the other hand people are much more prepared for snow over there then here. Many here most likely don’t even own anything to scrape the snow of the windshield on their cars.
So we had fun and made some snowmen and found some of our neighbors were outside playing as well in snow. Hope you and your kids take advantage of this and let the kids have fun in the snow. I am sure this snow will be gone by the afternoon today. Excuse the snapshot quality of these photographs.These are merely to show how unusual it is to have snow down here. This coming weekend they are calling for warm weather , in the 70’s again.
Even I got wet and played with the kids.
