Snow days!!

We've been home for the past two days due to a snow storm. It's been cold, windy, and snowy (with a little sleet mixed in) so we haven't gone anywhere. Just lots of family time together and trying to keep warm!


Jenna went outside to play between "round 1" (Monday night) and "round 2" (Tuesday afternoon/evening) of the storm while Chris worked to clear the driveway.


Look Brenda and Jill.....no more Cowboys coat and camoflauge pants. He has graduated to coveralls now (and our neighbor's snowblower b/c ours decided not to work - ugh!).





Jenna wanted Chris to "make it snow" on her with the snow blower....








Warming up inside and making chocolate chip cookies (THANKS to our neighbors for a cookie mix in a jar Christmas gift!!)....





Family game time after a comfort-food dinner (beef and noodles and mashed potatoes - YUM!)



More snow and wind this morning.....



Neighborhood snow-blowers meeting......














By this afternoon Jacob was going a little stir crazy indoors.....so I improvised and created a "boot protector" so he could go out in the snow for a little while.

We are supposed to get snow here in Houston and back home tomorrow night! Love the boot cover!

Looks like the Covey's are making the most of the time at home! I LOVE the pictures of you and Jenna together...so cute! :0)

Oh to be young and "want" to go out in this. I have been content to stay in, but can understand Jacob getting cabin fever. Glad he got to go out for awhile. MOM

I still remember playing in the snow with a breadbag over my cast when I was little. I miss the camo and cowboys...coveralls are useful, but just not the same.
