Fun for the family!!

So if you scroll down you will see that just 2 days ago....Monday......We were outside playing in beautiful fall weather. Jumping in the leaves and having a ball. What a dramatic change. Thank you Colorado for your crazy weather!! We had a SNOW DAY today!! Yes I am as bad as the kids!! A day off for them means a day off for me and fun in the snow!!!! We made a desperate run to Target for new boots, gloves, hats, sweats, hot chocolate and marshmallows! MMMMM!!!! Then we stopped at Blockbuster for movies (anticipating a nice cuddly night in front of the fire!) After we got home, loaded our bellies with lunch, Bug and Nan were off until it got dark. We got a foot and a half of snow today and it isn't even supposed to stop until tomorrow night, which means at least another foot and another SNOW DAY!!!! The kids started to build an igloo with all the neighborhood kiddos in our front yard which they are so excited to finish!! More pics to come tomorrow! I'm sure I will see them when they need to load up on food and hot chocolate but not much more than that. I LOVE THE SNOW. The highlight of today.........SNOW ICE CREAM. Yes Ice cream made from the snow. It was awesome. My daycare Mom told us about it today. So easy. Put a bowl outside and let it fill up with the fluffy snow. When it is full, bring it in and add a 1/2 cup of sugar, 2 tsp of vanilla and about a 1/2 cup of milk. YUMMY!!!I can't believe I have lived here all my life and been deprived of this!
Other than the fun snow, we had more good news come to us on Monday night. Garrett made the all star team for football. He will be practicing 4 days during the week and playing the first 3 weekends in November with the best kids in his league!! YEAH!!
Syd is saying Mama, knowing fully well who Mama is! She has also learned to clap on her own and kiss you and her stuffed animals! Too cute!
Savannah is still working hard at soccer. Not too active with it this week because of the SNOW but she'll be back in action soon.
Enjoy the pics!!
