I will NOT shovel my driveway in April

Happy Spring! There are 3 inches of snow in my driveway!

I will not shovel it. Thought it has been snowing for a couple of days straight now, and the visibility outside is dropping, I refuse to shovel my driveway. It is a matter of principal. I've already put away the snowblower and i don't care how high the snow piles up, i am going to wait for it to melt.

My 3 year old has already switched over to spring mode, I think. I swear he must have slowed his energy down a bit over the winter to accomodate being indoors all the time, it must be some sort of hibernation. But then the weather got nice and we played outside every day. He's been riding his bike and playing in the sandbox, we've been going for walks.

Tuesday night, we went for a nice walk, it was about 68 degrees. We played outside and cooked chicken on the grill. Wednesday morning I woke up to go to school, and it was snowing.

that's just WRONG!!!

Now my boy is bouncing off the walls and talking a thousand words a minute, it's like adjusting to winter all over again. I wonder how everybody did with Easter egg hunts today, there were a bunch scheduled. I think we're going to find an indoor location to hide a few eggs tomorrow afternoon.

Although an outdoor egg hunt would certainly be interesting today - nothing hides a field full of easter eggs like 3 inches of snow!

As soon as the first snow flakes started to fall, Natalie wanted to go sledding.

The best year of my life was in 1996, when I had my F-150 4x4 truck - o.k., maybe not the "best" year, but it was a good one.

Why? Because I never shoveled the driveway - I just put it in 4-wheel drive.
