Snowed In

It has become increasingly harder to think of things to keep the boys occupied during the day especially with the cold weather. I was talking with my good friend Kara who had some Great ideas that I have been trying. One idea was that since it was too cold to play outside, why not bring the snow inside. What could it hurt, it is only water after all!?!?!?! I went outside and gathered 2 huge bowls of snow and got out plates, spoons, bowls, and lots of other misc utensils. Let's just say that they LOVED it and I got to have 20 minutes to get the dishes done and go through the mail. Here are some pics of the FUN. - Melissa

That's a wonderful idea, but they'll need MORE snow to build a snowman!!! Just kidding!

That Kara has all the great ideas...Melissa, so happy you had some time to do something.....you are doing a WONDERFUL job being a mommy!!!!

I remember when I was little I had a bad cold and wanted to play out and mom brought the snow in also. We made mini snowman on a cookie sheet and used cereal for the eyes and such.....just another idea for the next time the snow comes in the house.
