We have been pleasantly surprised this winter with three snows already. One before Christmas break, Christmas Day and this past Sunday. This time around the snow, and mainly the ice, has kept everyone out of school and has given us all time to snuggle up with our kids, read, and more importantly rest. Dave flew out to for the Detroit Auto Show and then on to Germany until Saturday, so he has missed this entire event. And what an event it has turned out to be. Olivia and Zach haven't spent a ton of time outside, but I can't blame them. It's pretty to look at, fun to play in for short periods of time, but so much better to stay warm and play.
Kobe has had a tough time of it, this being his first year in the world, he isn't sure how to get his plumbing going in this cold, ice covered world. It's been entertaining to watch him during this ice-in. Of course, we have been out enough to capture some pictures and videos....but no snowman yet. The ice came too fast :-(
I coerced (forced) Olivia to take Kobe out to 'try' to pee!
Check out the hammer on the table. They brought it out to 'break' the ice. No, that's not dangerous at all....
Sledding in the 'hood.
So, after staying inside most of the first day, Olivia and Zach got their mojo around 7:30 pm and played to their hearts content. They immediately started acting out a action movie. I gathered they were in trouble with the ice and were trying to save each other. The entire 30 minute movie was hilarious, I have an awesome 2 minute clip of it, but could only post a shorter one.
