pictureless update

i forgot to connect the phone today....  and am off to bed.  but wanted to remember our first snow day!  i got the call around noon, and they apparently told the kids at lunch (silly teachers!) that there would be a snow day today.  we were anticipating it, since it was the "blizzard of the century"!  d's work got cancelled soon after that for the next day and a half.

kids slept in.  and played quietly.  and b slept through the night.

i had made the kids gluten free cinnamon rolls- they get so jealous when daddy eats his sweet rolls!  they were surprised when i pulled them out for them.  homemade and oh so yummy!  it is a recipe from a friend in san diego, and i get so nostalgic when i use it.

we played games.  i sewed.  they watched "star wars".  the first episode (there was some debate about how to watch them!!).  wii was played.  next door neighbors played.  daddy took them outside.  c came in cause his hands were cold.  and then wanted to go back out.  then came back in 2 minutes later.  then wanted to sled.  i dressed him again.  and he sled down once and came back in.  then j came in.

we have learned we need waterproof gloves!  oops...  and i am realizing the things i want to stock up on in the future for being stranded at home.  ice cream was a good call, however!!!

i had an ava anderson leadership training call.  i am super stoked about that.  d put the kids in bed and we snuggled up and watched a movie!  oh... and the big kids had a sleep over.

a good day.
