Happy Monday, Reader! So… it may be hate-inducing to some, but YAY snow. To be honest, I am writing this before the snow has begun on Sunday because:
1. Football
2. Bedtime for bonzos.
3. I’m writing an even more fun and spectacular post that will go up later today.
…wait, what? A more spectacular post than this one? Yes. Yes, indeed.
Addie has been a super trooper (meow what did you say?) about staying inside and dealing with me being a bit sick and her baby sister on an I must nurse all day so I can grow out of every stitch of cloth in this house trend, so I compiled 3 crafts and we made them all happen this weekend! Sounds like something you want in on, doesn’t it? I’ll give you this info… these projects are NOT as messy as you think they are, will take minimal tools you probably already have and will amuse your tot for at least an hour apiece. Seriously… I know you’re hooked now.
So… have a fabulous snow day (if you get one…), and grab some fun inside ideas in my post coming up later today. Until then, rock out to Morals’ new video, Question?
P.S. Happy 7 years to the man of my dreams… sweet Dave, you deserve so much better, but you’re stuck and, for some reason, you love it. ♥

My kids are home from school today and I am bummed about it. I would much rather have them out earlier in June when I can get them outside.
Chelley @ A is for Adelaide says
I feel like a few snowdays are just that… do they make kids make up all the days now? Idiotic as teachers put grades in at the same time as usual- they don’t usually extend the end of year stuff.

My kids buses were cancelled today here in Toronto, so it was a snow day here! Which was terrible because it was way too cold to go outside to play and we were cooped up inside all day! I wish I was as productive as you today :/

Snow came super early and then left. When it returned, it returned w/a vengeance, and we had another snow day yesterday too.

Had our coldest day of the year so far today, I think. The littlest ones don’t do school yet, but they sure were full of energy today and having no part of those pesky naps.
