Snowmaggedon Fun

The girls got lucky. I don't usually have Emily on Thursdays but when my sister seen we had another snow day she called to see if we wanted Emily for the day. Usually Emily goes to a babysitter close to her home on Thursdays.

The girls loved being able to play with her in the snow.




Anna and Libby helped Mark clear out Anna's car Wednesday night. A four foot drift had buried it in the drive down to our pole barn.



We are lucky that when Kaylyn gets bored she bakes. These cookies were gone in no time. She makes really good cookies. She also made us spaghetti for lunch and even sauteed some fresh mushrooms to mix in it. Such a great treat for lunch on a cold day.

Snowmaggedon 2011

Here is a picture of our deck taken last night at 9pm by Libby.
Yes that is a deer cling on my window. Emily put it there. It looks nice don't you think?

Here is a picture taken at 9am this morning by me.
It's a good thing we don't have to let the dogs out this door. They go out through a slider under this deck so it is somewhat protected.

You can see we got a lot of snow last night. It took Mark an hour to snow blow our driveway. The accumulation isn't terrible it's the drifting that is making a mess. Mark said the drive down to our pole barn, where Anna's car is parked, has a four foot drift in it. Anna won't be driving today, Mark wasn't about to attempt that before leaving for work.

Needless to say... everything around here is closed including the salon where I had a 9am haircut scheduled so I will put on my baseball hat and hang out with the kids today. Stay warm!

Yet another snow day.

This has to be some kind of record. The kids just finished mid-winter break so they haven't been in school since Valentine's day. It is just crazy.

Stay warm.
Smiles!

Here we go again!

You guessed it, yet one more snow day for the kiddos in West Michigan. This time it is working in our favor. You see we, Anna and I, had planned on seeing Tori come home from Haiti at the airport at 11:27pm last night (wow that is late). Due to the weather they got stuck over night in Miami so now they will be arriving at 2:00pm this afternoon. This will be much easier on this old mom who likes to get her sleep at night. We can't wait to welcome her home!

Smiles!

For something profound jump over to Blessed.. and see her post today. Be blessed!

Love that Michigan weather...
