 Well, because it rained and froze over night we get ANOTHER snow day!! We're so lucky!

I did some work on my shark project just to be sure I have it ready for the due date on Monday.

Later we all went outside to meet up with and play with some of our friends. Liam H, Liam C and Albert all came to meet us and play outside of our house for a while.

Then it was time to go inside because Mama got us tickets to A Tour Of Her Own's virtual history tour of "The Secret Life of First Ladies".  We got to have some hot coco to warm up from our outdoor play and then it was time for some history...

It was so cool to learn some really interesting things about the First Ladies of our country's history. Did you know that not all first lady's have been wives of Presidents? We've got lots more facts to share!

After our tour we headed to Pinecrest to meet back up with our friends to do some ice sledding!

It was so cold but we kept warm running up and down that hill. At one point Mama thought we were trying to sled all the way home the way we were going and going and going down the field on our sleds. The ice was actually a little dangerous!




While we were sledding a few other kids showed up. One boy got on his snow board and headed down the super slick hill and proceeded to face plant right into the ice covered concrete. We were really nervous for him because he got hurt and was bleeding! But Mama made us promise to be careful and NOT stand up on any sleds!

Then Mama got smart and went to sit in the car because she was too cold. But at least she could still see us!

Then we all got too cold and it was time to wrap it up and head home to warm up! It sure was another fun snow day!

 Today we got a snow day off school because of the impending bad weather...we sure hope it snows! And by about 10am it finally started...slowly at first.

We were so excited that I ran outside in bare feet to check it out!

Even though it was a snow day I still had a drum lesson and I got to have a joint lesson with my friend Gabe. It was fun to have a lesson together!

We were all happy to do some snow day chillin!

Then it really started snowing. Really hard and big flakes were coming down! And it just kept snowing and snowing. We were so excited!


Then our friends Emmett and Liam came over so we all headed out to play in the snow!

And it snowed and snowed and snowed! We had a snowball fight and played in the Coll's back yard with Molly.

Then we went inside to dry off and warm up with some hot coco and popcorn and a movie! Ahhh we love snow days!

Untitled


We were surprised that it snowed as long as it did. Then as we were out for our second run in the snow it turned to freezing rain so we walked home and boy were we wet and cold! But we got changed out of our wet clothes and snuggled up with some new, warm pj's and played together in the play room.

For dinner Mama made us a nice warm beef tip and mashed potato dinner. It was the perfect dinner for a cold winter night!

It was kind of pretty outside once everything stopped and there was a pretty white blanket left over everything.

Tonight we had a yummy roasted red pepper soup that Mama made and added croutons and pan seared shrimp. Oh and also garlic knots. It was a yummy, warm dinner since it's getting cold and wintery outside!

After dinner we snuggled up and watched the Pee Wee's Holiday movie. It was so silly and funny! We loved it.

Then I checked on my orbies! They have been growing and growing and they're so fun to play with. They also make really fun pictures when we photograph them!

Today I had pumpkin pie for breakfast. Or should I say, I had whipped cream with a touch of pumpkin pie for breakfast...

It was another beautiful day today. My brothers and I took a nice, long walk and played outside. For dinner, Nana and Papi brought us Olive Garden! Salad and bread sticks and spaghetti and ravioli and chicken Parmesan! So much yummy food!

It was nice to hang with Nana and Papi for a little while. Then we watched some football and just relaxed.
