A Replacement

As I mentioned in my last post, I am sending my two favorite boys to the Super Bowl and with an adventure like that I could not send them without a camera, so I said they could take mine(so nice I am:).

Well, a have a very important party to attend myself on Sunday so, I had to breakdown and buy this:
(for myself of course:)



Ours broke at the beach last year and we replaced it with a cheap one, that could never take the place of our cannon.

Again, I made this purchase for my boys, so THEY could have a camera at the game:)

We Had A Snow Day!






It is no secret that I don't like the snow. I can handle one or two snow days a year and today is our first one. The kids started asking to go out and play around 7:30am, I was able to hold them off until about 8:45am, but since then they have been in and out a half dozen times:) They love it. They made snow angles, a snowman, played on the sled and rolled around with the dog. I am glad they got the day off from school they wanted and some snow to play in!

But I am even happier that I am headed to Florida on Friday for a few days of warmth:)

Six More Days!

Only six days to go until the girls and I fly off to Florida for a long weekend and Gracie's 1st birthday! I really hope the sun shines for us and the temp can make it up to 65-70.

My mother picked up Gracie's gift today(and gave it to her). We got her a wagon and so far she loves it. She just kept climbing in-and-out:)

Anyway, in six days I will be some place warmer than here:)

Sun and Park Fun

Nothing beats a 55 degree day in the middle of January, especially after weeks of 20's. After fetching the monsters from school, we headed to the park where we stayed until it was too dark to play! The kids had so much fun and are nice and worn-out from running around in the fresh air for nearly 2 hours! Gosh, I cannot wait for Spring:)
