More Days at Home...

We will be home from school today and tomorrow because of the low temperatures! We have already played a few games and the boys decided they wanted to watch movies. We have started with Captain Underpants and they can't look away from the tv!

Prep...

With all of our extra days at home, Nick and I have been going through "stuff" and getting it ready for a future garage sale or trashing it. We have accomplished a lot in the last few days! I found these "pit passes" I had made for the boys' 5th birthdays and they insisted on wearing them today and carrying their checkered flags!

Saturday...

It was Conner's turn to surprise me by reading in his bed this morning! By the afternoon, the boys needed some outside time, so Nick took them out to battle more of the snow in the driveway!

Snow Daze...

We have had 3 snow days this week, a planned no school day for the boys, and an early dismissal... what a crazy week! We have all been getting up early because one never knows if we will actually have school that day! I was pleasantly surprised when I found Ben in his bed reading this morning at 7:00. That was a great start to my day!!! He exclaimed how much he likes this book which happens to be Tom Sawyer! The 3 of us ventured to Target this morning and the boys talked me into some new legos… They needed a new activity since they have been home all week!

No Rails..

The boys didn't have school today and I just had to work in the morning, so Nick and I took them to lunch and bowling! They insisted on no rails (bumpers) this time! Their scores may have been pretty low, but they loved it! No more bumpers for these two!!!

Always...

On Saturday mornings (especially when basketball is canceled) this is what I find the boys doing! Always on the couch, always right next to each other, and always playing games on their tablets!

Wish...

Nick treated us to a grilled turkey dinner tonight and the boys got to fight over the wishbone. When it broke, Conner ended up with the bigger piece. He said he wished for joy and happiness... and some other stuff that he couldn't tell us because it's his wish!
