Well, yesterday, the kids were excited to wake up and find out that school had been cancelled for the day! We had experienced an ice storm (not really a storm, but enough to do the trick) the night before & were hoping this would be the case!!! On days like yesterday, I am reminded how blessed and fortunate I am to be able to be at home during the day. I know it is a privilege, and I think I need days like yesterday to remind me to never take it for granted! We had a great day. We packed a lot into it....we wrapped presents for our trip to Arkansas this week, we made Christmas cookies for our Bible classes, I did laundry (okay, it wasn't ALL fun and games), we played games and wrote letters to Santa, I did laundry....
Kinlee just bought herself a bucket of "fuse beads" the day before our ice day. So, as you can see above, THAT is what Kinlee did most of the day. Anyone she knows with a first name initial - well, they will be getting a handmade ornament this year!!!! She had a blast. I think she ended up making 23 in all!!!
Last night after supper, we all piled up on the couch to watch some Christmas movies that were coming on TV. I think we ended up watching Winnie the Pooh Christmas, and 2 Charlie Brown Christmas movies. A great end to our fun day.
To top it off, as the kids were getting ready to take baths last night after the movies, I heard Parker struggling in the bathroom. I walked in to find this, along with Parker saying, "Mom, I need major modifications!!!" After a little bit of work, we finally got it off - I think I'll be making some "major modifications" to the sweatshirt before we put that one on again - I thought he was giong to have to wear it to bed!!! Anyway, we had a great day together - oh yeah, did I mention that I did laundry???!!!........
