Snow Day

This has been the coldest week we've had around here since 2009! We took full advantage of the "snow day" today and kept busy with indoor and outdoor activities!

The boys were so excited to use the finger paints they got for Christmas. The fun only lasted a few minutes, but they loved being able to use their hands to paint!






Joshua has been asking to go outside the past couple of days. It has been SO cold, like single digits cold, the last few days, so I haven't let him go outside. Today is a bit warmer, so we decided to take full advantage of the snow while Luke was napping.

We shoveled, attempted to make a snowman, wrote his name on the fence, made a Mommy and a baby snow angel:),"snowboarded" and used our fun paint marker in the snow.



Even though going outside in the cold isn't my favorite thing to do, I will treasure these memories as these boys are growing up WAY too fast!

Jester's Court

Our nieces had their 2nd birthday party at a great new place in Grand Rapids called Jester's Court. It is an awesome, clean:), place for the kiddos to run around, climb and bounce! Jordan, Julie and I and all the kiddos made the trip down there for a morning. The kids LOVED it! They all had so much fun and it was so nice to be able to let them get their energy out which isn't normally that easy in the Winter months!
 I could barely get this boy to stay still for a picture. He was running the whole time!
 Luke and Myles went down this slide over and over and over.....

 They weren't supposed to move the blocks out of the play area. After being asked by a worker to bring the blocks back, this was Luke's response. Myles was trying his hardest to get him to comply.
After realizing Luke wasn't going to budge, Myles decided to try and pull Luke all the way back to the play area. Too funny!
Joshua and Josi were trying to come up with the funniest/craziest ways to go down the slides. They were too funny, giggling the whole time down!
 This little man kept his Mama on her toes. She was up and down almost every slide with him and he was constantly wanting to be on the go. He was so cute how he would try and keep up with the bigger kids!
