February Sum Up

Snow, Cold, Snow, Cold.....Repeat

As most of you know we have been DUMPED on the year with TONS of SNOW and BITTER cold temperatures. We don't have kids in school yet where they have to make up days, but these poor kids in our area are not going to have much of a summer. They have so many days to make up! One day alone we got 13.5 inches CRAZY!!

Always helping our neighbors

Dewey asked for an igloo. Perfect we have plenty of snow for that. But my husband took it to the extreme and mowed the back yard with the snow blower to give a huge igloo + slide...

Then the bitter cold temps set in just in time to harden the snow and get it ready to dig.

Dewey had two requests though...1) dig it high enough to stand up 2) smooth out the floor.  Not asking for too much....Definitely a workout for dad. 

Valentines Day fell on a Friday, which made it possible for me to help out his class with their party. He has 24 kids in his class and I was very impressed how they were very organized and the kids listened very well. They had their regular morning routine then we played a couple games and enjoyed sweet snacks and each student sat and looked through all their little Valentine cards that they received from each other.

Next year kindergarten!

My boys spoiled me for the big day...

We tried a new bbq place, Aaron added a Willow Tree to my collection and ended up with some new kick to start out the running season.

My wonderful mother and father in law celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary also that same weekend. We were blessed with a full day visiting at their place with my brother in law and sister in law. Always a great time, playing games, laughing, catching up. 

Aunt Kim loving on her nephews and Dewey could't wait to get a snack.

SPOONS!

G'ma and Dewey adding graffiti to the snow.

Dewey had a field trip to the Community Vet Hospital.... it was very interesting looking behind the scenes. They were very patient with the large group we had. They had name tags ready for each student.....Dr. Dewey ready to assist.

And we are STILL working on the kitchen.... we are making progress and it is looking SO GOOD!!

So hopefully the weather will shape up and we can think Spring... I have my first race 5K next weekend and hoping for decent temps. But, here is this weekends forecast..

Really! Come on March,

PLEASE BE KIND
