Snow Day!!!!


This is our version of a "Snow Day"!!!! School has been cancelled for today, because of what you see!! Oh well, now I have time to grade more papers!!
It's been a while since I have posted, so let's see about getting caught up. Christmas was good!! I was using the video camera to record the boys opening presents---only to find out that I never actually pressed the "record" button!!! I guess I hadn't had enough coffee!! Thankfully, Paul got some still shots. Mitchell and his girlfriend (Sam) were here Christmas Eve for dinner and Christmas morning to open presents. It was good to spend some time with him!!
January has started off with good stuff and bad stuff. Good stuff: Our hallway bathroom is now finished!!! Paul did a REALLY good job!! He had some help from his friends, but did a majority of the work himself. We have also added a pantry in the kitchen and another closet in our bedroom (Paul wanted someplace to put his clothes--go figure). Bad stuff: Luke's guinea pig (Mohawk) died. He was able to hold her while it happened and then he and Paul buried her in the backyard. This has been kind of a tough year with us and animals.
