The Blizzard

Brian was so excited about the Big Storm that was headed our way! He was excited to be snowed in and play in the snow. The storm did not disappoint! We got 10 inches of snow!

View from my kitchen window. At least I have a pretty view while I wash dishes.

Playing in the snow while Daddy shovels. He loves it and even in freezing temperatures. He also loves throwing snowballs at his Mom. 

It was coming down pretty bad and one point and he asked to go out on his slide and play in it. He got the biggest kick out trying to slide down and the snow stopping him.

The day before the storm we went to the library to get books. We are reading the Magic Tree house seris and we are on book # 4. He LOVES them. We went through the 1st on in one day.  

My Mom got him this journal and everyday we look out the window and then I help him write what he observed. So far, he was written about SNOW, SNOW and more SNOW!

I thought this was so cute... his true feelings about the library.

My best friend got this project for Brian. He LOVES art projects. He has a drawer in the kitchen all full of art supplies and we have been meaning to dry this one. The crayons melted pretty fast the the finsheid product was such a cool mix of colors.

Gotta fuel up for those soccer games!

Watching Brian's soccer game! He played goalie that day and LOVED it.

One Sunday after church, we built a fort in the living room and hung out. Brian LOVED this.

I am a sucker for these bath pictures. It was so cold one night during the storm, we gave the kids baths to warm up!

The kids had a blast on Valentines Day. Brian kept saying it was the best Valentines Day ever. We got Brian a hot wheel toy and Annie this balloon. It was so FUN to just watch her play with it. She seemed so fascinated every time it floated up.

We had fun working on Valentines. We cut out some hearts and gave Friendly Ice Cream gift cards to our friends. He got in good writing practice writing them out.

That night Andy took us out for dinner. Brian is a lifesaver in helping with Annie while dining out. He kept wanting to dance with her in the booth and spin her too. What a good big brother.

Just a cute one of Annie! 6 months!

Annie girl tried squash the to other day and LOVED it. Man, she is a good eater but MUST being holding a spoon in her hand while feeding her.
