My Wish for Today

I’m hoping all my winter snow day dreams are coming true!!

{I must add I have some clients in Arkansas flying to Walt Disney World today and while I’m wishing for a winter wonderland for Texas, I’m hoping Arkansas doesn’t get a thing!}

I’m typing this in the afternoon on Wednesday. Right now the forecast looks like we could wake up to some yucky winter weather. Crossing my fingers that doesn’t change and we get our first snow day in YEARS! The year before we moved into this neighborhood it snowed in Texas. Enough snow in fact, we could SLED! I remember us driving by this neighborhood and seeing the PERFECT hill for snow days. We bought our house that summer and it hasn’t snowed since. I’m holding out hope it happens soon so we can enjoy that hill covered in snow!

Growing up in Missouri and in the country at that, snow days were much more common. I remember one year having many, many days we were stuck in the house because it had snowed so much. That got me thinking about what we had at our house as “Snow Day Essentials” and whether I meant to or not, I found myself making sure we had many of those things at our house just in case my snow day wish comes true.

All the ingredients for soup is a MUST! I made a chicken noodle soup last night and have everything I need to make chicken tortilla tonight. Bread and milk both were restocked in my grocery pick up order yesterday. And I have a brand new game I meant to get out over Christmas break but it didn’t happen. Games and movies just scream, “SNOW DAY!”

I’m signing off a bit quickly today! Hoping this isn’t how I’m seeing a wintery mix!
