sat & tues

 It's hard to believe how quickly the weather can change around here!  Drastic is some what of an  understatement.  I was boasting Saturday about our wonderful 70 degree day, and I quickly started eating my words when the sleety-ice stuff started falling late Monday night.  Tuesday started out very cold, snowy and the first of now 4 snow days for the kids.  One day is exciting... two days well that's still fun for them... but 3, 4 days stuck inside with kids and no where else to send them is some what frustrating.  I've tried to rotate them through all the stuff to do around here... coloring, playdough, games, books, Super Mario on the DS, DVD's, wii, play time inside, play time outside, etc. and well they get bored easy.  I know I need to come up with some new ideas... but I'm tapped out right now.   Yesterday I did venture out and was able to see why the buses aren't out... there's not much exposed pavement even 3 days after the snow.    And, we are getting more snow today, more predicted for Sunday, so it looks like the kids will be home a little longer and I might need to reconsider homeschooling.  Here's some pictures that I took before, during & throughout these snow days... enjoy! :)
