March Snow Storms

Like always, time keeps flying by and we are almost to the middle of March already. Nothing too exciting has been happening around here, we've pretty much just been dealing with the typical day to day stuff around here, and hoping for nicer weather.

We did enjoy some nice weather last weekend, and ended up taking Emma "fishing" last Sunday. Most of the lakes still had a bunch of ice on them, so we found a stream, and just let her practice her casting with just a bobber on. She thought it was great, and she actually did a really good job with the casting and reeling.

Last week seemed like we were busy just about every night with some grocery trips, a daycare visit, and some other odds and ends. I was so ready for the weekend once it got here.

We had a pretty low-key weekend since the weather was pretty yucky. It was cold and snowy all weekend. On Saturday, we got out of the house for a little while and took the kids to the Kirby Science Center. They had an absolute blast, and we all enjoyed being out of the house.

John's parents watched the kids for a couple hours so we could go out on a date by ourselves, which was amazing. We went to the Pour House and then we had a peaceful Costco trip. It wasn't the most exciting thing ever, but it was nice to have an adults-only outing.

Today was kind of a marathon of a day. John had a wedding he shot all day (yes, on a Sunday!). So, I was cooped up all day with the kids. It wouldn't have been so bad if the weather had been nice, but with the snow, wind, and the cold, we just stayed home all day. We played games, played with Legos, painted, crafted, colored, played with Pom Poms, ran, jumped, danced, and watched Trolls. And I think I cleaned up with living room 59 times. They were pretty well-behaved though, and only had a few screaming fits. But, they wore me out. I am happy to say they are both resting peacefully, and I cannot wait to go to sleep, I am not looking forward to this Monday thing though.

This next week should be a little quieter. On Friday, the kids and I are heading to Minnesota, and both kids are super excited about it. I am going to the cities with some of my friends, and the kids are going to have some Grandma and Grandpa time. And John is staying home to work on pictures. It should be a good weekend for everyone.
