Snow day


As the entire East coast is shoveling themselves out of feet of snow, we are enjoying ourselves and making the most of the fun - and manageable - levels of snow that we have.  Riley went out to help Chris shovel and did the best that he could with his bucket.  And yes, that bucket is doing double duty with sand and snow this year.  Turns out Riley loves his new snow boots and wears them all day at school.


And as a special treat, we scooped up some snow, put some food coloring in it and let Riley at it.  Don't worry, I was very careful where we made our snow selection and picked the snow that had not already been colored.

Life is busy!


Just a quick note to say that I haven't forgotten about the blog!  Life is super busy - in a good way - and chugging along at a very fast speed.  I read an article this week saying that you have fewer than 1,000 weekends with your child before they turn 18 so we are making the most of our time together and really enjoying the fact that we have time for family fun while everyone is in town!
