What to do on a Snow Day?

We live in the lower mainland. What does that mean you ask? It means when it snows everything shuts down and we stay home (many apologies to the rest of Canada who are embarrassed by how wimpy we are... it's just how we roll down here.) I suppose it is pretty silly, but I'm a home-body so I. LOVE. IT!

How did we fill our surprise days off?:

Well... we don't hate the snow entirely! The kids were pretty happy to play in it!

We did some art work. (unfortunately we did not hang said art work... that is still on the "to do" list.)

We did lots of cuddling with Luke.

We watched some "Price is Right". (This is very fun... especially when the kids start calling out their bids or telling me to go there "right now" so I can win a video camera!)

We tried some new recipes. (Thanks Mennonite Girls for knowing how to cook and sharing what you know!)

We did LOTS of mazes and coloring!

One of us did a sewing project!

And... we spent some time with this guy.

Sam likes to race as "Toad" and Maarti as "Princess Peach". They are getting to be pretty good drivers... and I am too.... Maarti gets bored quickly and then hands me her wheel midway through her race!

All in all it was a good week, except for one thing: Chickens don't take snow days!... so, Jeremy still had to go to work and he worked some l-o-n-g days. We wished he could have been home for all the fun!
