Snowy Weekend

Our plans this weekend included driving to Price to exchange presents with my parents. There was a storm warning that included Sunday saying 1-2 feet of snow in the mountains so we decided not to go because Spanish Fork Canyon is horrible in the snow. We were kind of going back and forth on what we should do but when we woke up on Saturday we realized we made the right choice. We already had 2 inches of snow by 8 am. Its now 1 pm and it hasnt let up snowing at all. If I look at the news it still says- chance of flurries. We sold our 4 wheeler with plow this year so we are greatful to my parents for giving us their old one. I am so jealous of my in laws who are in Hawaii in 80 degree weather right now. Justin in his hat snow blowing... He wears this hat everywhere these days.

I ate snow as a kid too and I am still alive.

We had a few accidents in Brett's bathroom lately. First it started with the porcelain garbage can breaking and then before I even replaced it the soap dispenser broke. Everything in there was white and purple with flowers so I decided since it will be a bathroom for 2 boys I might as well let them ditch the flowers. I went to the store to get something cool like spider man but all I could get was zoo animals. Brett's reaction was great. I thought he would think they were a little babyish but he loved it.



Brett is such a wonderful help to me for doing chores. Today he cleaned toilets, counter tops and mirrors as well as moved laundry to the laundry room for his mom whose back hurts. He was having so much fun and even though it slowed me down a bit it made the whole process enjoyable. After it was over he got to pick another toy from the basement. (He is still trying to earn them all back). Anyway Justin just loved that he picked his old Construx toys. He has had them for a while but had no interest in them as of yet. They keep him occupied for 2 hours this morning. It was great. I think Justin kind of enjoyed the whole thing as well. we looked it up on the internet and they havent made those toys since 1988. It sure makes you feel old when you realize your favorite childhood toys are more than 20 years old.


This is the first weekend that Brett is not having a nap at home since they are not napping at school either. Brett is very excited about this- I am a little sad because I am guessing if he doesnt nap I wont get to either.
