BBBBRRRRR!!!!

School has been cancelled for the past 3 days. There was that much snow! Todd came home early Wednesday due to patient cancellations and didn't go in on Thursday because....you guessed it.....snow!!!

Tyson spent the day playing with the next door neighbor and having snow ball wars.

I had fun *no, wait- I DIDN'T have fun* attempting one of my very first snow men. He was not great by any means, but he was created...by me.....freezing to death......with a crying baby inside and a 2 year old running around in the snow with crocs on. Yes, I deserve a parade.
All the while, Todd was out back building a ramp (if thats what you call a mound of snow about 2 feet tall). I'm sure with a little more practise we will have ourselves a "real" sledding ramp.
Yes, I'm calling out my husband but only after he mocked my snow man making skills - or lack of.
Shawni "pretended" she was playing outside - according to the kids, who buried her in a pile of toys (the 'fake' snow).
Ready to go bright and early again this morning.......
Luckily the sun was out and the snow was melting. We headed outside to play and shovel the remaining snow when this...... showed up.
Obviously, he thought he looked good judging the look on his face and the swagger in his walk. Snowballs.............
scooter rides......... and some serious posing.
These kids are going to sleep good tonight.

SO WISE BEYOND HIS YEARS............

Tyson informed me today of the cool way to wear a backback. I guess he would know since he is cool.

STRONG MUSEUM OF PLAY

Look familiar???

The Sesame Street wing was one of our favorites.
My kids had so much fun! This was by far the BEST museum we I have ever been to.
A kid size grocery store complete with : isles and isles of food, a pretend deli, bakery and produce section. Once the kids filled their carts with products of their choice, it was check out time. They took turns scanning eachothers items and printing out receipts on the cash register. Saying 'goodbye' is never easy.
