Birthday time!

My little munchkin turned 12 this week!  Ahhhhhhh!  I can't believe for fast time has flown. 

We had her birthday party yesterday with a friend from school, and friends from church.  Sadly Karl and Josh had to stay home because josh was running a fever! I scheduled it at a place called Wonderworks,  and the kids had a great time! It was also the longest party ever!  By the end of the day, I was tired,  but they had such a good time it was totally worth it!

Seriously confused weather

Yesterday morning I sent Emily out to the bus stop in the rainy drizzle.  I didn't check the school website because the blizzard we had been warned would come at 5 am clearly was no where in site.  After a few minutes out alone, she texted wondering if she missed the bus.  I checked the website. Yup. Snow day.

I grumbled for the first rainy hour or two and then the flurries started and didn't stop until after dinner.

Tuesday we rode bikes in the lovely 45-50 degree weather.  Thursday we shoveled still more snow-we got a foot for sure off the sidewalk and driveway so the kids and I could get to the bus.

The snowy mountain is at least as tall as Josh!  Sydney walked a little too far to the left and fell in up to her knees.  Sigh. And of course she said,  "why does it always happen to me?"

Emily said this morning, "yeah! I have a white birthday."

  I miss spring! I got some bulbs from wegmans to lift my spirits!
