Today we woke up to 2 feet of snow!! Seriously two feet of snow!!!
We also found out that school was cancelled!!
Karden was a little upset because today was supposed to be the last day of school before Christmas Vacation, and all the fun parties were today. So we had a party of our own...Shoveling the snow!!
After that was done, we got bundled up and headed outside to enjoy the weather. Karden and Whitley had a blast making snow angels,
trying to be moutain climbers by getting all the way to the top of the snow banks.
Whitley also made a princess castle out of a plastic bucket
and karden made a fort for his guys surrounded by a moat of "hot lava" (boys!!)
We of course had to warm up with hot chocolate. The kids went outside again after dinner tonight and after taking 30 minutes to get them dressed they played for a whopping 13 minutes before deciding they were FREEZING. Its no fun for mom to take longer getting kids dressed and undressed then the actually play time. But what do ya do!!
We also decided to make out annual gingerbread house tonight. Let me give you one hint..........FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS!!
Ryan and I start to assemble the house and it says after assembling house wait 3 hours before decorating... Who has that kind of time....Especially with a 6 and a 4 year old. So we decide to just use twice the amount of frosting and wait about 3 minutes. ( it had a 3 in it, what could possible go wrong) Well all is fine and the house is looking pretty good, given we are not going to be winning a food network challenge, but hey it is standing up!!
2 minutes later.............
Should of followed direction!! We learned out lesson.
But all in all it was a good day!! Now what am I going to do for the next 2 weeks while the kids are out of school!! I may need a pepsi- a BIG pepsi!!
