Snow Days

SNOW DAY Haiku

(January is when I usually did my poetry unit for 4th grade...this is a Haiku for them)

Cold FUN

You all are impressed by my Haiku skills :-)!

Favorite Christmas Gift

Mea and Jaden have really enjoyed the tent that Grandma Margie and Papa Davis gave them. They got 2, but I refuse to have a tent city in my house, so only Mea's is up (yes, it is still up).

For a couple of days they napped and watched tv from it. Then, it was moved to Mea's room where she slept in it for a week. Now, it is just up in there. When I can't find Mea, she is usually zipped in her tent, hiding from everyone for a little quiet time. Good present Grandma & Papa!

Our FANCY Dinner

I love Christmas traditons. This is one that I have brought from my parents. We have a fancy Christmas dinner, talk about the things we are thankful for, and enjoy one anothers company. It was a lot of fun!

The longer we ate the crazier it got!

Baby It's Cold Outside!

One of my favorite Christmas songs is Baby It's Cold Outside-right now my favorite version is Lady A's. I find myself singing it all season long. This picture reminded me of the song.

Mea's Dance

I thought I would include a picture of super cute Mea getting ready for her 1st dance recital. She did a great job!

The Magic Tree

One of our traditions is to go driving, looking for Christmas lights. This year we were smarter and packed them in the car with jammies and hot cocoa and milk. It was a great night. Our favorite stop was the Magic Tree...it truely was magical! I even made the kids brave the cold for pictures.
