Snow and snow and lots more snow

Had the weirdest day today. I woke up at 6:30, expecting a long drive to school because of the snow on the road. I start getting ready, I'm about 30 seconds into my morning rouitine, when my host mom comes in a tells me that there is too much snow, it's impossible to leave the house to go for my last day of exams - my French oral exams. I wasn't gonna complain, so I hopped back in bed for a couple more hours. I woke up again at 8:30 and started the laziest day of my life. There was at least 3/4 of a foot if not a foot of snow. The night before, the SECOND tree fell on the property - this one bumping up on the house and not breaking windows and one of the cars by sheer luck - my host dad had decided the night before to not park the car in the usual place. So after some TV and a slow breakfast, I went out with my brother and siser to pay around in the snow and on this huge - probably 75 foot - tree that was right in front of our house. After, with my host mom and sister, we went on a nice walk in the snow. And after that, lots of reading, TV, a lazy lunch. Enjoying the snow. No exam - that will be for when school restarts, apparently.
Welcome to Christmas vacation!!!!
