Penguin Day!

Nathan's class had been learning about penguins and they had a Penguin Party last Friday. Unfortuntately, I was not able to attend, but Aunt Teri and Cousin Hollie did!! The class dressed in black and white as penguins, sang a penguin song, read their reports on Penguins and ate oreo cookies. Here are a few pictures from Aunt Teri - THANK YOU!!

Blizzard Part 2

Hopefully this will be the final chapter on snow this winter!

Here are a few more pictures.

Shortly after this picture was taken early Wednesday morning, the snow really started coming down and the wind was blowing fiercely!

We stayed inside all day and the kids enjoyed pajama day.

Even the dogs had fun!

the following day, once we dug out of our driveway, the kids visited friends and did some sledding

Sela found herself a comfortable seat in the snow - it was on top of a 10 foot pile of snow and she liked being above everyone else!Nathan is standing at the entry to the igloo that the other kids had dug out - they put American Flags above the entry way.

Nathan also got into a snowball fight with the older kids and had a great time!

I am glad they had so much fun, and hope that memories of snow will all we will soon be left with! :)

Let it snow, let it snow, Let it snow!

Oh the weather outside is freightful, but the fire is so delightful....
Yes, that is just over 31 inches!!

Nathan wanted to help shovel, but all he did was pose for a picture next to the shovel! Sela didn't even make it outside because I told her she MUST wear pants and she refused...such is the life of a princess!

Our table on the deck (hope it doesn't fall down - the deck I mean)!!

The path I shoveled for the girls around 7:30 this morning - you can't even see it now!

Bathtime!

Some random shots from bathtime last night - looking at the pictures, I can almost hear the giggling - what a beautiful sound!
