Long Overdue Update

I know it has been a long time since we posted anything. So I will try to give an update about the last month or so. We didn't take a lot of pictures, but I will share what we have with you.

The month of January was very snowy and cold. We had 2 days of school cancelled due to weather and then 2 holidays when there was no school. So, it felt like they were hardly in school. I think we got about 40 inches of snow in January and the kids loved it. They played outside when it was above 20 degrees.

One of the days that school was cancelled, the kids wanted to have a picnic in the family room. Here they are enjoying their homemade "Lunchables"


Here are the kids playing in the snow after one of the storms. I think this was also a day when school was cancelled. The snow was so deep they had a hard time walking in it.


Here is the view from out our front door. Notice how hight the snow is on our gas lamp in the front yard!!



On another day of no school the kids decided to play "tiger." They decided they wanted to really look like tigers, so they made their own costumes. I think they ended up taping the whiskers onto their faces!



And here is the large box that they turned into their African background for playing tiger. Katelyn made a sun, mountains, and a cloud to decorate it.

On another day of no school, the kids decided to play barbershop and of course, Maya and I were the customers.

And then for the Super Bowl, David decided to make Pittsburgh Steeler cupcakes. The cupcakes have gold cake and then he decorated the top with the Steelers logo. They turned out great and tasted even better.
