Farewell, Draco

Dec. 21, 2012 10:35 am
So Winter Storm Draco has moved on. And far from draconian, my children found him to be delightful. Of course, they didn't have to drive anywhere, or shovel snow roughly the weight and consistency of concrete. Marion, thankfully, was spared from Draco's full wrath.
They just got a snow day, news of which was greeted with joyous shrieks Wednesday night. And they made the most of it.

Tess and her pals constructed Fort Draco.
Wow. I think it may be time for Ella to come inside. Wait, that's not Ella.
Santa could use some goggles. And a broom. And maybe some brandy.
