We taught the kids how to play euchre, I can only go to 5 points with them, totally lose my patience! I’m trying to teach them to be always paying attention and be ready, nothing worse than playing slow euchre! So, when Jenna came over and knew how to play – Jackpot, they could play without me:)
A family game with my new favorite board game – Ticket to Ride
Our annual picture in front of the Christmas Tree, which almost always happens after the ornaments are off and I remember we haven’t taken it yet
Love this picture of them all reading in Mari’s bed, she has them all reading How to Train your Dragon books
A “too cold to go to school day”, calls for making pancakes
And, some mandatory reading time
And, some “you need to go outside” time, not even sure who this 3rd boy is??
I volunteered to go to the State Capital for the boys’ field trip, not realizing they were going on separate days – back to back, ugh, so I was pretty excited for the snow day that cancelled Ezra’s. He wasn’t too happy when Tobin got to go the next day, but we’re rescheduled for February.
It was very cool, love the architecture
Some sledding/snowboarding
Some friends came over and spent so much time lining up our Teddy Bear Dominoes and City Blocs all over the basement, and they kept having to restart it, it was quite a scene
Oh so excited to get some oranges from Grandma & Grandpa’s backyard tree, we are so spoiled with these!
Building snow guards for the eventual snow ball fight
