Just thought I'd start the month of with some Edgar Allen Poe quoting.
But Seriously our December was far from bleak, it was busy and fun and full.
We taught the boys how to play Mexican Train. They both caught on really quick and really liked it.
Friday 2nd grade coping.
Rex had a Sleepover with Ezra and I surprised them with the holiday themed Krispy Kreme Dozen. Their faces were worth every penny.
Grant and I have been having fun in the woods with it all cleared out of leaves. (and spiders) Grant was scoping out good hide and seek places.
Gingerbread house making 2019!!
Grant's house, with a santa's sley and 2 swings.
Rex's carefully designed roof.
It started snowing on Sunday night....
by Monday morning this is what it looked like
By Monday night we had 6-7 inches of snow! we ended up with 2 snow days and LOT of playing out in the snow.
We had some fun feeding the animals at the petting zoo at the Way of Lights
Lucy and I used some of our morning walks to hunt down some hidden trees with bows for a Parks and Rec Jingle Hike contest. Every tree you took a picture of and guessed the right type of tree (using the clues they gave you) you get entered to win a goodie bag. (If your dog is in the picture they get entered for a doggie prize).
