Snow Days and More

Well today marks the 7th snow day for our school this year--wow! Part of me loves it and another small part wonders how we will ever catch up at school--but it is what it is! My kids love it and they have been so common lately that Caden has started to ask--"Is it snowing today mommy so you can stay home with us?" We have watched a lot of cartoons, shoveled snow, went sledding, colored, cut, did stickers, played games, cooked, and of course taken naps--a girl could get spoiled!

Miss Brynn is quite the artist--she loves coloring and at times will color and play with her crayons and markers for 30 minutes--and other times it is 5, but it is an almost every day item that she asks to do. So here she is all sprawled out on the floor coloring...

And in the high chair coloring!

About 3 blocks from our house, they are doing some major construction work--Caden is eating this up--we walk over there about once a week to see what the tractors and trucks are up to--one Sat. we found they had left the big scoop in the hole, so we climbed down for a picture--Caden took mommy's picture and I took Caden's.

Now for the snow--Brynn's first time this year giving it a whirl--was not sure of it at first, but she quickly caught on to the fun.

Sledding time--Daddy hooked a bungee cord to our sled and off we went for some fun!

Whee--Caden on the sled and Brynn supervising!

More Daddy!

Two happy kiddos!

Mommy even begged a turn!

A very handsome snow angel!

Time to shovel snow--Caden was a great help!

Say Cheese!

What a big scoop--I think we are going to need lots of big scoops to get us out of the house today as it is still snowing--wow!
