Snow day

We were eating breakfast this morning when we noticed that it was SNOWING!!! I looked up the forecast and it said that we were probably going to get 2 or 3 inches of snow. The kids were ready to go and build their snow fort right away, but we had to get school work done first. What motivation to work quickly!

Here's what I'm left with when the 3 oldest are playing outside in the freezing cold. I guess it's time to reorganize the coat closet again!

Not much snow, but they enjoyed themselves.

Meanwhile, Karis and I played peek-a-boo under the kitchen table.

And chased her to keep her away from the cat's food. She thinks it's a game.

We enjoyed hot soup for lunch.

Caleb warmed his hands around the bowl, but then decided he needed an ice cube so he could actually eat his soup.

And what's left when the fun is over?

Yep, all the wet stuff.
