Snow Day #1

Today was snow day #1.  Traffic ended up being a nightmare and pretty scary.  Lots of people stuck in cars overnight and still today.  Kind of scary really.  Brendon went to work last night and I just told him to stay at work...too dangerous to come home.  He tried to rest at work but not much rest happened.  The snow started to melt a little so he got home after 2:30 this afternoon.  He was very tired and went to bed.  He did get up for dinner though and played outside with Olivia for a few minutes.

Olivia and I had a "beary" good day.  All of a sudden today Brown Bear the stuffed animal had to join the crew of her "friends." So he hung out with us all day.  So with the bear theme we made peanut butter oatmeal cookies that were shaped like bears.  We painted and played and then after lunch we went outside.  I was even a great wife/mommy and took her for a walk in the woods.  We saw some animal tracks and followed them.  Brendon makes fun of me for hardly ever going in the woods.  But Olivia and I walked down to the creek and came back.  Then she finally took a nap after 2 days not taking one! Then we played some more and had dinner.  Then we played outside with Brendon for a few minutes.  It was dark so the snow looked "sparkly" as she said!

Tomorrow is snow day #2....no school again tomorrow =(
