Pizza and Prizes

I can't tell you how wonderful it is to have snow.  My children were getting tired of mud angels and mama was tired of mud laundry.  It's funny how it starts to feel warmer as soon as it snows....I'm not sure if that is the insulating value it has or just the warmth radiating from my heart.  We will be ice fishing and snowmobiling today with cousins and friends as long as the ice is thick enough and the wind doesn't pick up.  We have just finished our Calender unit study and our Gun Safety unit.  I think we underestimate the power of the little stuff.  Last night we went to Pizza Hut for a treat.  I told my 3.5 year old to tell Daddy what he had earned today.  As only a 3 year old can......."A cefificat of mert, Eddie Eagle Gun Safety"  at the top of his lungs.  Meanwhile my 6.5 year old is belting out Bible verses to overspeak him.  Heads were turned, chairs were moved away from us, and mom's eyes were beaming as Dad was shushing everyone.

Jan. 20, 2007 - Happy for snow, too

Posted by KayinMaine

Yep, it's definitely nice to finally have some snow, though it's still not enough for my husband. He's hoping for a good three-foot storm soon. Actually, I'm chuckling about your comment in an earlier post about getting two adults and three children on two snowmobiles. We can fit our entire family of six on one snowmobile! It's quite a sight. :-)
