7th Snow Day This Year

Our back view is magical!

Aspen ~The Missionary
The kids were pretending that Aspen was a missionary
&
travelled all over the world to help people
That made this Mama
sooo happy!!!
He travelled to Libya, Egypt, Cambodia, Nigeria,
New York City, Florida
(I am sure I am missing a few)
The kids came up with the destinations all by themselves
It made my day!!!

A boy & his cookie





Dog beds & blocks

Aspen enjoying some Goldfish
on everyone's favorite dog bed!
Chillin!
It cracks me up!!!
I recommend that everyone gets one of these!
Even if you don't have a dog!!!


Quinn got out these oldies but goodies!!!
Max was having fun too!
Iz & Q
were frustrated
that Aspen kept knocking over their creations
So they decided to pretend that he was a monster
destroying their castle!!!
We have had these blocks for 7 years
&
they are still a blast!!!
