Snow day 2001.01

So ironically I'm writing about our first snow day on yet another snow day... Today actually marks my 3rd snow day this week... when does this EVER happen in Texas. This morning I checked and there are 757 schools closed in the Dallas area! most of which have been closed since Tuesday... wow.

Back to this post, this was back in January and we were all off work and got to play a little bit.  Although, I didn't play much, due to the issue that my wardrobe does not include snow gear.  This did not stop the kids, Adam and Jeff.  They started by building a HUGE snow man (i don't think I got a picture with them next to it, but it was taller than Jeff!)  and then paused for a little snowball fight, followed by some snow angels,

 and then finally their pride and Joy.... the igloo!  Adam actually formed each brick using a shoe box, then Anthony and Ava would bring the "bricks" to Uncle Jeff and he assembled the structure... impressive.

Looks like they're already planning to repeat this today, pictures to follow!

For now, take care and be blessed,

Christmas in Tyler

 

The week between Christmas and New Years Jeff and I headed out to Tyler to visit with his family.  Adam and Jodi and the kids were also there.  It was so nice to just enjoy each other's company with nothing to worry about but love, laughs, and good food!  Jeff's parents so generously gave me my first DSLR camera! and ... I'm in LOVE!! I'm still learning how to take pictures with all the different settings, but so excited to learn more.
