Fun Snow Day Activities

Post 3 of 11
I thought that it was fitting to get this one posted now, seeing that it's snowing and we can't play outside again. I have tried over the winter to think of different things that I could do with the boys. You know the ol’ cabin fever thing. We’ve done a few things, not as many I had hoped for, but we had a couple of really fun ones that was a lot of fun for all.

One was an idea my friend Stacie told me about, an indoor picnic… I loved the idea so here is what I did… I made pizza pockets, apple pies with my sandwich maker… yumm-o… packed that, drinks, and new movies (I’d had them for a while but forgot about them). We went downstairs put down a blanket had our picnic while watching 101 Dalmatians . It was a great “family day” as we like to call them.

The other favorite that has happened a few times are the ever famous blanket tents!!!... This is just one of the many creations that have developed here. :) as you can see the “whole family got into the action and had a blast with this one!!

Field Trips for Everyone...

Today Jimmy, Chris and I went to Jimmy’s school early and did the morning family reading program together and then ate donuts afterwards. It was a lot of fun.. then Jimmy and his class (along with many other classes) went on a field trip today. The got to ride on school busses and go to Salt Lake City to the Discovery Gateway Children’s Museum.

So as you might have guessed Chris didn’t take to that very well…. He wants to be in school so badly!! But he’s just not ready and still has another year to go, which is good he really needs that year as his Joy School “mom’s” would attests to. Well since he’s had some issues lately about feeling left out and such I decided this was a good time for us to do something just the two of us. So Chris and I went on our own field trip. We went to the Bean Museum and then the park to play and have a picnic “home packed” lunch.…GOOD DAY for all :)

p.s. It started out a really nice day, you know the one that let’s you know that Spring is in the air. Well that faded quickly and we moved the picnic into the truck. That wind just cut to the bone today. It was still fun and some quality time for Chris and I that we needed.

Happy Halloween!!

Can you believe it it’s Halloween night!!... The boys and I have had ONE JAM PACKED DAY so far… it’s mandatory “rest time" for an hour of peace for all three of us… we still have to...
pick up Dad (Steve), do dinner, trick-or-treat, have a treat with our friends afterwards, and then scary movie time!!! (Casper)... WOW!!.. that is why Auntie wanted a nap but it seems that I am working against the sugar and have to moderate the “rest time” so I thought that I would take advantage of the moment and just jot a note down. I’ll be the one in the corner sleeping during the movie!!

I CAN’T BELIEVE THAT THERE IS ONLY 2 MONTHS LEFT OF 2008!!!... What a YEAR!!

LOL LOL LOL…. I just checked on the boys in the front room, I’m in the kitchen so that I could “moderate”… here is what I found!!!... wow what 6 min can do and change into!!....LOL LOL LOL

SWEET VICTORY IS MINE!!!
