Driving on Snow

My first day of driving on icy roads and snow packed slick back streets in a bus! It went very well...at least I could see! Last Friday the fog was so bad I was pulling into intersections where I really couldn't see. That was very stressful to say the least.... then to see those drivers that will not put their lights on..... hello? Anyway, a bus handles very well because of it's size. Looks like we are getting more snow tonight and tomorrow...so more fun if not a snow day. I doubt it.

I usually do not go into news things in my blog, but this really disturbs me what happen this past weekend here...how tragic-what leads a person to do something like this?

The beautiful balloon creations were from this weekend at our school district's "Santa Express" put on by the bus barn. We sponsored children from our district that were in extreme need....put on a breakfast, shopping for little gifts for their family, and a bag full of presents including a coat and a backpack. My kids helped set up...that meant waking at 4am and getting there at 5am....we had a wonderful time and I was so proud of my kids for being so helpful. At the end...the balloon guy did some balloons for them :)
