who's ready for a snow day?

We haven't had any yet here in St Louis (although flurries were in the forecast last week but never happened. But I know many of you have already had your first snow day of the season.

I made this tag in fond memory of school "snow days". Here in St Louis, if it snows overnight and the roads are bad, many schools close. When I was young, the school closings were announced on the radio (now they're on TV), and we'd wait with bated breath to hear the name of our school announced as being closed. My daughter has had a few rituals through the years to improve the odds of a snow day for her school. One of them is wearing her pajamas backwards and another is putting an orange in the freezer. Either (or both) of these done the night before you are hoping for the snow day can bring you luck. Believe it or not, these little rituals have worked their magic many times for her throughout the years!
