Starting Saturday night and into Sunday we we’re supposed to get freezing rain and 6-10 inches of snow. The freezing rain came, but the prediction of 6-10 inches of snow soon turned to 2-4 inches, which ended up amounting to less than an inch. People were furious with the wrong prediction and the title of this post was a quote on our weather channel’s Facebook page. I had stocked up on lots of groceries just in case and even took work home thinking we would be stuck at home come Monday. Since I already had everything I needed I made 2 new recipes this weekend. One was a potato soup…

The past 2 days we’ve been hunkered down at home while it snowed 10 inches. So what did we do during our snow day?  I became quite the Lego builder. Ben got really good at practicing sight word cards he found in my work bag. We painted our hands for a Valentine’s Day craft.  Jack played with almost every toy he owns.

On Monday we got roughly 4 inches of snow which has now all melted and temps are supposed to be in the 50’s today. Thanks goodness we took advantage of it when we did and headed out to play. My sister gave Ben an awesome sled for Christmas so J and I packed up the car and headed over to one of the local elementary schools which has great hills for sledding. I was scared at first that Ben would fly off but he held on like a champ and had a blast.  After an hour and half we had to drag him out of the snow. Anyone else get/play…
