Dallas or Antarctica?!?!

It is Beyond COLD here!! We have been locked in our house for 3 days in a row and it's supposed to snow again tonight. Our driveway is a solid 2" ice skating rink and Hannah has had a blast practicing her ice skating skills out there. I would have taken a picture, but it's too cold for me to step outside. We're not used to this and we don't know what to do when it hits us! We're all getting cabin fever and starting to get on each other's nerves, but for the most part, the girls have been great locked in the house! Mommy on the other hand...well, I'm running out of ideas to keep these girls busy! We've done everything, including having a birthday party for each one of our babies and a birthday party for Wally and Ariel!!! I refuse to bake anymore, because I'm so bored I'm eating every single thing we bake, we've read every book we own at least 20 times, we've gone "swimming" in the bathtub, we've played every game and done every learning activity I know to do, we've cleaned our house until there's nothing left to clean, we've organized closets, colored and painted 2,000 pictures, had hot cocoa and popcorn parties in our "dining room chair tent," and played so much playdo that it's almost all dried out! What in the world is left to do? I wouldn't survive the arctics for a day!!!


Ice, Ice, Go Away...Come Again Another Day
They're all bundled up to play outside
Alice Anne did NOT want to come in!!
Baking for the 100th time. No more baking...we're all out of flour and sugar!

Sweet sisters reading books to each other
In case you didn't notice, we've been in our pj's for 3 days, too!!!

A snow day sounds pretty fun to me right now! You could: paint your nails, make homemade playdo, do exercise videos, have a puppet show, write Aunt Mary a letter. Hope the sun come out and the weather clears up soon!

Seriously...spring can't get here soon enough!
One snow day is fun..but a whole week is getting old.

You must be exhausted trying to think of things to do. Mary has some great ideas. Thankfully we got a few blog photos out of this bad weather week:)
