Snow Day No School Day







Today is the day after the snow...that tried to shut the state down...did a pretty fair job from the weather reports from across the state.

No school, so we had two of the 10 grand children here for the day. It was too cold to be outside playing in the snow so being a bit of a crafter, I decided to show them a few things....I used empty cardboard egg cartons, empty cardboard paper towel holders, construction paper, craft buttons and lots of glue and tape.

We made a variety of things including a homemade kazoo, a totem pole, homemade bird feeders, and a jelly bean basket for mommy and daddy.

The internet is a wonderful tool, if you like to craft, just go searching for things you want to create and someone has the instructions out there, just waiting to be utilized.

Nap time is finally here, so I'm taking a break to share some of the adventures of my day.

Stay safe and warm, until next time.

Snow Day

Snow on my butterfly bush
Neighbors meadow and mountain

Winter has arrived




Today the weather man actually got it right. Said we were to get 2 to 4 inches of snow....well it is still snowing and there is that much or more on my deck....Love it though. May get out tomorrow and make a snowman with the grandkids....haven't done that in a while. There will be no school for a couple of days I'm sure and PaPa is a babysitter when there isn't any,,,,Granny had to work this weekend so I will be here with my babies tomorrow...will have to see what kind of trouble we can get into.
