Things To Do During a Snow Storm...

Well, not used to New England getting two snowstorms in a row (makes me think of my younger years in Michigan). But, at least today, we could do things indoors without much trouble...for one, I added the Braces Bunch to my blog roll...


Like play videogames...and boardgames...and some Wii games....


Eat chocolate cake...sorry, it was too good, too quickly eaten for a picture...


Watch classic Holiday Fare...Note the letter from Santa Claus Michael received in the mail (from the NORTH POLE) on Friday...he was in such wonder and held the letter all that night...


Finish (FINALLY) the last wave of holiday cards...

But, by far, my favorite thing we did today...

Start painting the Nursery...(I did not have masking tape, so this was just a start--Michael had fun painting "W"s on the walls (for Willow). The color is "Willow Leaf".


I don't know if you can tell, but our friend Ana started the mural--she outlined it in chalk...you can kinda see the giraffe and the elephant... (if you click on the above image, its a bit more clearer)


The crib is for X-Mas week...


Oh, and I guess...shovel snow!

Fun things. I suppose I'm going to have to start decorating the nursery and buy a crib one of these days.

We had 8 inches this past weekend. S had a snow day Mon. K got to make her first real snow man. Nothing but powder snow the last couple of years. I like the shade of purple. Have a Merry Christmas and happy birthday.

good green color! I'll have to keep the mural paints bright (might need to use acryllics) and I can lighten the room up with curtains and the such so we'll have quite the baby space all set up for baby Willow!

All fun things to do when going outdoors isn't an option! It seems that when we're trapped inside, the imagination goes into overdrive.

I love the "Willow Leaf" green color for your nursery (I've seen in later pictures that it turned out nicely); sometimes I friend's touch makes it much more special!

Much Needed Self Care...

For my Birthday this year, I got a weekend away from everyone at a nice hotel with a spa.  This was the weekend.  And much needed it was! Af...
