Snow day, bubble machine and pics

Here's Ethan behind a bubble from his bubble machine.

Ashe is trying to pop the bubble and Jonah doesn't want him to! The hat Jonah is wearing used to be mine when I was little.

Jonah!
Hilary, I practiced your zooming in and natural lighting- what do you think?

Snow in front!

Snow in back!

Today is a snow day! We went to a Math Night at the school last night and it started snowing right before we left. Snow had been predicted. I didn't even know - I was informed of this by at least three teachers at school yesterday when I went and volunteered. "It's supposed to snow tonight and Saturday!" one teacher gleefully exclaimed. Another teacher: "it's really supposed to snow tonight!" and the third one- when I was picking up the kids from school- "Any news on the weather?" Nope. I don't really have a ton invested in what the weather is like. Yes, my kids stay home but that's about it.

The snowflakes came down slowly starting at 6 pm and were still going at 10 pm. We planned on having no school. This morning I checked the website- yep. No school. So, we made one eye monsters (eggs in a hole in toast), went shopping at Sams Club for the makings of fruit smoothies (even though it's snowing, I need a fruit fix!) and picked up the movie Ice Age 3 at Redbox. We also played with Ethan's bubble machine after blowing bubbles in our shakes and I practiced my photography skills with our new camera. Here's to a snowy day and having kids at home to play with!
