Cameron thought it was the funniest thing ever this morning when he woke up and I told him it was another snow day! What snow?! Freezing rain I can do without but of course we gladly took another snow day to extend our weekend!
We started out by making play-doh!
This provided LOTS of entertainment today! I truly do not enjoy the play-doh clean up with the store bought kind, and I have to say this clean up(well, many clean ups today) is not as bad! It was fun to play with this while it was still warm and add the food coloring(although adding coloring to whole wheat flour play-doh does not quite seem to have the same effect--ha!)
Notice the tie die look!? It managed to even out throughout the many uses today ;)
There's just something about rolling out play-doh and cutting it.
We decided to make the most of the day and get a few things done that we normally save for the weekend. So we ventured out to run some errands after a few lazy hours at home in the morning.
The boys got a much needed haircut and we stopped at Party City to look for some birthday decorations. Birthday week is almost here! The boys decided for a Batman theme(even though they have never seen anything Batman--but he is a superhero that flies and has fun powers). I couldn't resist it when they put these on in the store....
Ha! Again, cheap entertainment as these super heroes flew around the house. Another quick stop to Costco and that was all the shopping with 2 boys this Mommy had in her! And at just about the point this mommy was craving some quiet time when we got home, the boys found some fun outdoors for a bit.
Stomping through snow AND water trying to build a trench.
Then the teacher in me also came out today(Wild Kratts just wasn't enough!) so we did some writing to end the afternoon before Daddy came home early ;)
So cute to watch him do his 'homework'.
And this one wrote about his sledding adventure yesterday--complete with a web and a good 'catch ya' sentence and the beginning. Ha! The teacher is never far from me ;)
And now if I can just convince Haiden that everyday will NOT be a snow day!
So glad that you had another fun day with your cute boys! The trench-digging is just too cute!!!
