What to do on a snow day?

We have had a lot of snow and most everyone I know around here stayed at home for the 1st few days!!!  I noticed a lot of cabin fever facebook statuses.  Well what is there to do on a snow day besides play in the snow and eat snow cream.  Ashlynn and Everett have it all figured out...

First was have a big healthy breakfast of egg whites, turkey sausage, juice, and a banana then we...

CRAFT...We made 2 sock puppets from the cool craft bucket Santa brought to our home. 

Then you take a break to run around the house and do a few laps

Then you COLOR (of course from more Santa loot)







of course you have to take another quick break to play doctor and make sure everyone is well enough to continue to color






Then only one comes back to color with mommy


then we take another break to work in buddy's workshop






While they are sawing, hammering,and building mom makes the lunch they requested...

And we have a pizza party






Then when we are done we have cheer on our PIRATES in the Military bowl





While sister is cheering on our favorite team buddy sneaks in a quick nap


Which let momma know it was time to lay down our busy snow bunnies and then I finished my masterpiece!!!


FLASHBACK FRIDAY...SNOW!!!

Silly I know but I wanted to post about the Christmas weekend snow and show the pictures and well since it happened last weekend then technically we are flashing back right???

We ended up with 13 inched of the beautiful white fluff.  I was in HEAVEN, think 2000 was the last time that we saw a significant (1 foot or more) snow.  I was so excited that my biggest Christmas wish came true.  I got snow for Christmas.  Ashlynn and Everett had a ball in the snow and well we have enjoyed going outside and playing in the snow all week and making snow cream of course.  Ashlynn loves her snow ice cream.  Almost a week later and we still have a good 2 inches of snow left in our yard too!  Plus a cute snow toddler that Ash and Everett helped build.
