Snow Days

Stacy and I were just talking the other day about how we hadn't had any snow this year and maybe we were in the clear....  You see I was really hoping for no snow days to make up in school at the end of the year, I was only planning on coming back to school for the last week from my maternity leave (which is only 3 1/2 days).  However, Mother Nature had different plans.  We have been off school for two days.  The girls might have been going a little stir crazy so I have been trying my best to keep them busy (snow play only lasts so long when you don't have proper snow gear and it gets wet and cold!)
Anyway I have tried to capture some of our activities over the last few days which included: snow balls, snowmen, snow angels, shaving cream painting in the tub, stickers, coloring, making cookies, painting popcorn/marshmallows (with food coloring and milk), and making homemade play dough.
Best part of the snow days???  Daddy got to stay home with us on Wednesday....now we are wondering if there will be any more days off this week????

She laughed and laughed and ran around in circles in the snow
Painting in the tub...I highly recommend this to any parent, she loved it and it kept her busy for an hour!!
