Snow Day!

Sunday evening it started snowing and we all hoped that a snowday would come from it. Well it did!  Monday morning school was canceled and we were all excited about it!  Our kids didn't have President's Day off initially--so thank you snow!  After Lee's morning patient we all went over to the park (minus Lois, Jeff and Blake) and went sledding. Our first sledding of the winter...sadly, maybe our last. It's pretty funny that school was even cancelled...the snow was basically all melted by late afternoon!






















Cal was packing snow into a cup and I saw him dump it out.  I told him it looked like a little snowman.  So he went a made one.  Isn't it so cute?! He did the photography himself too.






After sledding and lunch, Lois and the girls and I went to The Valley Pantry.  I love going there!  The last of our guests for the weekend--Lois and co--left a little after 3.  It is always sad when the last of the visitors leave.

These pictures are for my friend Janae. I braided the girls' hair a few weeks ago the night before church. Then Sunday morning I unbraided it all.  It was very cute.  I don't have pictures of the end result, but this is a hairdo I often do on Haley.  One day I'll do a side braid on her hair.  I part the hair fairly low on the other side..if that makes sense.  So it doesn't look that great in this picture because I had fixed her hair the day before.


Then I leave the braid in all night and the next day I take it out.  I just gather a little bit of hair in the front to keep it out of her face.  Usually her hair is more wavy, but I think you can get the idea.


Haley took some pictures too...here is Shanna's ballerina that she created. I love how the ballerina has her arms out and a leg kicked up.  Very creative Shanna!


Haley also got a picture of Elden.


The weather has been wonderful this week--very energizing!  Just what I need!
