  Maggie and Madeline have been begging everyday to do "crafts." We have worn out some of the tried and true things with papertowel rolls and toilet paper rolls. Luckily, Grandma Oldenburg gave the girls some great craft projects in their stockings for Christmas, so these were a fun change today. I can't believe my kids are old enough to do crafts...  Hard to tell in this picture, but the snow is only 2-3 inches from the swing.  I really hope this icicle touches the ground before this week is over.  This is a picture of our sidewalk that was just shoveled yesterday, and our poor bushes...almost totally covered up!!!  I don't know if you can tell in this picture, but the snow outside our back door is probably about two feet high. Good thing we don't need to get out that way.  Sorry for all these "boring" snow pictures without the girls in them, but these are mostly for all our relatives down in the warm South!! Also, our girls are kind of wimpy when it comes to the snow. I hope that changes when they get older, but for now, it takes me 15 minutes to get them all bundled up, and after 5 minutes in the snow, they're ready to come in. They have been getting a kick out of the ever-growing icicles outside our windows. Every morning during breakfast, they give us their daily "icicle update." |
Love the crafts! What cute girls, I bet they are excited about having a baby brother. Enjoy your snow! Wow, it looks like you guys got a ton!
