What we've been up to...

A little of this...

A little of that....

And lots of things in between!

The theme at our house has been "Eat, Sleep, and Play"!

What a blessing-

to have another day home to pretend that I'm a stay-at-home mom and to enjoy my sweet boy who is growing up way to quickly. 2 snow days in March-wow-we will pay later-with late work days and such, but for now we will enjoy the blessing-God new that Spring Break is still a long way away and this was his answer, a winter break, with snow this time, and warmth, and fun family time :)

It is so easy for me to get caught up in what I need to get done, instead of just slowing down. I slow down just about as easy as I quiet down-ha! I have 2 speeds full speed ahead-and at a dead stand still- and likewise 2 volumes-loud or silent. Soooo yesterdayday we played outside in intervals, Isaac painted and then dusted some of the furniture, and I did straighten up a little, but I tried tnot to get super involved in anything.
Not sure what today holds, I'm trying to decide whether or not I want to leave the house :)

Playing Together

Some fun shots from our many trips outside today :)

Nothing Like a Snowman

There is nothing like working together to make a snowman in the freezing cold :) We were lucky to have Mimi to help us out today.

Snow much fun!

To snow or not to snow?

Well what do you think? Will it happen or will we be disappointed again? I think our chances are looking pretty darn good-but who knows :) All the weather stations I have checked, even the National Weather Service are predicting accumulations from 1-3 or 2-6 inches so my pinto beans are in the crock pot, i've made mac and cheese and I've got the stuff for a great big pot of chicken noodle soup-that's what we do around here when it snows-we eat :)

Snow Day- What????

It seems that our town is the town Snow forgot!!! I think maybe that would be the perfect children's book, I'll have to add it to my ever growing list of ideas. But, all kidding aside, it seems that the other end of our county is covered and here we are at home with clear ground. Isaac is watching anxiously, encouraging the few sad flakes that are floating to the ground and hoping for enough to at least go out and try to catch some.
Normally, I would be tickled for a snow day, but this was going to be our second 4 day week in a row, and our next break would be a teacher work day in Feb. Now, we will have to work that day and therfore, won't have another day off until at least March-yick. But, because of our trip to Charleston and crazy schedule I am a little behind with a few of my chores, so while Isaac enjoys some PBS specials, I am going to catch up on some chores, so that maybe later I can light a few candles and catch up on some reading :) And who knows, maybe today will be the day that I upload some pictures for your veiwing pleasure-stay tuned-you never know what a full day home might bring :)
