Snow Day!

I just realized that I am SO behind on posting.

This has been a pretty mild winter.  We've had cold but not SUPER cold temps.  It will snow really good one day and then be in the upper 40s with rain the next.  The snow will come and then completely disappear before it snows again.  We've had hardly any of that nasty gray slush on the streets and sidewalks.

One day last month, it snowed pretty good.  The girls and I decided to head out and have us some FUN!

Jaden's lanky body is the perfect snow angel maker!  Until she tries to get up :o)  Then it just looks like a snow angel crash landed.


We tried making snow balls.  When I say "we," I obviously mean "they."  I don't have waterproof gloves!  Plus, I'm on camera duty :o)



Taylor's version of a snow angel... It just didn't work :o)  She's fallen and she can't get up!


Jaden's friends told her it was ok to eat the snow.  Well, my picky child was a little hesitant.  



"It's snowing!!"


Then, of course, there is the swing set!  What kid can resist a snow covered swing set?!?





Taylor had a hard time walking through the snow.  It was so deep and her snow pants were SO puffy!  Jaden crawled to make a path for her :o)



Then, we sledded down our front yard!


Pictures ended here because it was my job to drag these beasts back UP the hill after they sledded down it. Talk about tiring!  We still haven't gotten our snowman family built... I really need some better gloves!  But, it's only February and I live in Indiana.  Odds are we will be building snowmen on Easter!

Happy Thursday :o)  Stay warm!

Project Life: Week 37

I don't know about you guys, but I have a serious case of the Mondays!  No motivation whatsoever.  Hence the reason for a Project Life post that should most definitely be three separate posts. 
I love the concentration on J's face as she works on her homework.

She's getting good at writing A and a!

I have a tradition of getting the girls' handprints on a tile each year on their birthday.  I did it each month for the first year. 


 


On Saturday, Mom and I took the girls to the Johnny Appleseed festival! 
We learned how to make carmel corn... SO good!!


 



Johnny Appleseed's grave site


We got to make beaded necklaces!





 

Each of the girls got a leather bracelet with their name stamped into it. 



Have a great week!

Friday Fun: 3 Truths and a LIE!

I know you have all played this before, right?  I thought this would be a fun way for you to get to know me better!  I'm going to list four things about myself, but one is not true!  Leave a comment telling me what you believe is the lie.  Then, I'll explore each topic a little more in depth!  Kind of like a blogger behind the scenes :o)  Ok, here we go!
  1. I took dance classes all through elementary school.
  2. I played the flute in high school band.
  3. I collect coins.
  4. I have had a job since I was 15 years old.
Ok, have at it... How well do you know me?
