"I forgot to mention we got no snow day."
Alternatively, how about replacing the introductory phrase with something that conveys the nature of the afterthought, and deleting the "no:"
"However, we didn't get a snow day."
"On the other hand, we didn't get a snow day."
"As an afterthought: we didn't get a snow day."
Whatever you elect, you should in the interest of an "intelligent" appearance eliminate the "smilie."

What you could do is make it more exciting. Since I don't have the full story I can't really help you out since I have no idea what this sentence is pertaining to. "I forgot to add" should either have a colon or a period. Just some grammar advice. If this is a creative piece, I think that this line is great.

First of all get rid of that stupid frowning face at the end, that pretty much destroys any intelligence in any sentence.
I forgot to mention that we unfortunately failed to get a snow day.

contractions are sometimes seen as informal. for more formality, use both words. i.e. did not instead of didn't

We did not
We haven't gotten.
I think it sounds okay though!
