Snow day and Canton

Guess what happened here yesterday in March in north Louisiana?? SNOW!! The kids got out of school at one because they thought the roads would freeze. But of course it didn't stick at all. But it was so pretty!! We haven't had snow here in YEARS! You could just hear excitement in peoples' voices when they talked about it.
We had a great time in Canton last Saturday. We started off the trip with a stop at Krispy Kreme in Shreveport! YUMMY!! We got to Canton around 11, just in time to eat again. Remember I have a 14 y/0 boy who eats constantly!! We found some barbecue sandwiches and chicken strips for lunch. Then off to shop! I was just in heaven. There was a lot of soldered jewelry and I got some cute ideas. My favorite place was the Fiestaware booth!! She has blemished pieces. Some of them looked like nothing was wrong. The main reason I stopped there was to replace a plate Jake had broken (accidentally). And I ended up with purple salt & pepper shakers, a big red serving bowl and Jake's blue plate.
The boys had fun looking at all the junk in the back. They have said they'd go back with me!! yea! But I think I'm getting too old to do that trip all in one day. We left that morning at 6:30 and got home around 10:30. Jonah and I had gotten up at 4. He had a coughing fit and then we couldn't go back to sleep.
It's still really cold here so I'm hoping for a pajama day today! I'd love to just sit around and read or stitch or solder. We'll see how that pans out!!
