Wednesday, February 2 was a Snow Day for all of the schools in the area, so I decided to be a fun homeschool mom and gave my kids a snow day too. They had a lot of fun making tunnels and a fort in the snow with Daddy. We also had fun playing some games and reading inside.

Snow Ice Cream!!

We woke up to the most snow I think I've ever seen!! So, what to do with all that snow? Make some into snow ice cream! My boys had no desire to help make it, but my girls were ready to help! So, we started with a gallon of fresh, clean snow; mixed in a cup of sugar and a tablespoon of vanilla. Then, we stirred in 2 cups of milk. It was very good. The cold felt especially good on my sore throat!

Papa's Girl

I'm not sure how it started, but every time we are at my parents house, Snickerdoodle goes to find nail polish and asks Papa to paint her nails. Sometimes he does toes, other times fingers, and on really special days he does both. What an awesome grandpa, right?
