I'm sure she meant the same thing I mean in that I am no longer concerned about messes and really who cares if the fort stays out for 3 days straight.
And getting dressed and teeth brushing are overrated.
And they might be eating a snack of peanut butter on a spoon as speak.
And I haven't taken a picture in 3 days.
ahhh..isn't it lovely? I truly do love snow and winter!!
Fort in living room
We baked muffins and cookies.
We played on the computer.
We played outside in short spurts.
We had game night with friends
We had a princess hot chocolate tea party with cakepops and cookies in the aforementioned fort.
Brenna made a paperclip chain and strung it around her room. It totaled 650+ paper clips and she and Josh did some scientific stuff measuring it with standard and non-standard measurement.
We read. A.LOT.
We had cousins night before round 2 of the snow rolled in.
We made some jewelry.
There. That is the summary of our last two weeks. I'm really hoping now that I have posted this, we will be back in school on Monday!! :)

Whew! I don't want to post what we've done "lo - these many (7) snow days!" It's pathetic. What we DIDN'T get done that I was just SURE we would get done -- that would make a longer post! LOVE that the fort was up for 3 days! And may I say -- p.b. on a spoon for a snack!? You'd better believe it! Sometimes that's our "appetizer" for lunch and/or supper because Mommy's too far behind schedule!
And I know you know this... but one day these 2 weeks will become legendary in their sweet memories (and probably yours too!)
Yes, they'll be talking about the winter we had 8 snow days for a long time! I think you made great use of the time! But I'm with you, enough is enough.
Someone face booked to us, that they hoped we would get a 1/2 day off for the 4th of July parade.
We probably would have had this many days off or more last year if the Christmas blizzard had come a time other than Christmas vacation.
Hey - it worked! We are back at school today! Looks like you made the most of every opportunity!
