A very special Grandpa and Great-Grandpa

  We will miss him and Grandma very much!



This is how I will always remember him - lots of conversations with him sitting in his leather recliner!

Inside-out backwards PJs

If you were wondering about Alayna's inside-out backwards PJs - there is a superstition in the school that there will be a snow day from school if you wear your PJs inside-out backwards and flush the toilet at 9pm.  So far it has worked 3 times - we are off school again today!  : )

Snowy days



Things are pretty white around here since the weekend.  We got about 5 inches of snow on Saturday.  Some of it melted on Sunday and Monday.  This morning we got another 6 inches.  Early release (1 hour) on Friday, no school on Tuesday and we already have a 2 hour delay for Wednesday.

Snow throwing - couldn't really make snow balls!
I took the kids sledding at the community park near our house.  It was a lot of fun!  I even went sledding, but for some reason my bones did a lot of jarring and creaking. : )  Some kids were out on their snowboards - I almost asked to borrow it to see if I could still snowboard.  Maybe I just need to get the girls one!

Yummy, yummy!
