Snowed In.

We have not had school yet this week due to snow and cold temperatures. (This morning when I woke up it was 3 DEGREES!) Many people complain about snow days, because it does mean we have to go longer into summer, but I will take a day at home when I can get it- snowy or sunny. At this time of year a few extra days come in handy. Since we have bee home Clark and I have been busy. I have cleaned, addressed cards and made some tasty treats all the while playing trains and watching lots of Mickey, Thomas and The Wiggles. The forecast is calling for more snow tomorrow night so who knows about school for the rest of the week, so if you have any activity ideas for a two year old, send them my way! Of course I have been taking lots of pictures, so here are a few to show you what we have been up to around here in Snyderville.

We woke up early on Monday morning to help daddy shovel his way out.

It was hard to shovel in mittens- so he took em' off.

Big helper.

We have done a lot of Barney lovin'.

I worked in my closet.

We took the front of the crib & made the BIG BOY BED.
Day 2= success thus far!

We made these for our friends.

We found a new use for trifle bowl.

I made a wreath for the mantel mirror.

We slept in on Tuesday & had a late breakfast.
This kid woke up (in BIG BOY BED) at 9:45am!!

We made a trip to Target where I nearly finished Christmas shopping & we bought this.

Our Gingerbread Train- GREAT SNOW DAY ACTIVITY.

He LOVED putting the candy on.

And might have eaten some of the ingredients! :)



Our finished product.
No, it will not be winning any awards- but it was fun.





It has been a productive and enjoyable two days at home. The roads were fine when we drove to Target today, so we will see about school tomorrow!! I don't know about you, but I am excited for GLEE tonight- rerun or not that show makes me smile. LOVE IT. Speaking of GLEE, do any of you watch The Sing Off? It is on Monday nights and I think it is on tomorrow too. It is very entertaining and I LOVE it too- watch it!
Off to eat dinner and bathe this wild child of mine!

Stay Warm!
