Snow Day and Photo Dump

There hasn't been too much going on with us in the past month, hence the lack of posts.  However, this weekend, we were given a pretty sizable amount of the white fluffy stuff...

14 inches of snow in about 24 hours.... that's a lot of snow!  Thankfully, my employer was closed yesterday for President's day and also closed today due to the inclement weather.  While the snow doesn't completely excite me, I will definitely take the extra paid day off!  

Between the last two days of being home, my days have consisted of a little cleaning, netflix, soup, playing Just Dance for some cardio, and taking pictures of our pets. 

Here are a few pictures: 

Snow Days: Meet Goliath & Valentine's Day

Yesterday after taking some morning pictures, we spent a good part of the afternoon inside. After lunch we decided it was time to get out and play in the snow. We didn't have sleds and I was bummed about not getting to sled, but Preston and I wanted to make a huge snowman, and that we did! I didn't have a hat or buttons, but part of the fun in a snowman is improvising and using what you have to decorate it. Our snowman was not name Frosty, or Jack, but Goliath because he was so huge! We had so much fun in the snow and even had a mini snowball fight. I'm glad I have a husband who will still play in the snow! Today I am off with another snow day, I plan on doing some house work, laundry, mopping, etc. while Preston is at work. We originally planned to celebrate Valentine's day on Saturday so we are continuing with that plan. For dinner, I'm making stuffed shells with a side salad, at Preston's request. Looking forward to trying a new recipe this evening and spending the evening with my love!

Happy Valentine's Day, Preston!  

And now... some pictures of our fun day yesterday! 

Snow Day Birthday!!

Happy Thursday, folks! Today I am home from work on a snow day! It started snowing yesterday about 3:00 pm and hasn't stopped yet. This morning we woke up and got ready to take the dogs (we are dog sitting for friends) out and to see all of the snow! After we were all ready, we went out and Preston measured 9.5 inches of snow so far, that's a ton of snow for us! It is so pretty, but Chloe girl hated it! She doesn't usually like rain, snow, or anything other than completely dry grass for that matter, so it wasn't a big surprise. It was Cujo's first big snow, so we snapped some pictures for Scott and Machele (his owners). Before I post pictures of our snow day, I must say that IT'S CHLOE'S 7TH BIRTHDAY TODAY! We will have our party later complete with vanilla ice cream, her favorite. Of course, she also has a couple of presents. So, in honor of our birthday girl, here is a picture of her from a couple weeks ago:

And now for snow pictures,and for the record, I used manual on these shots... making progress with figuring out my camera!

Meet Cujo!

Hope everyone has a safe and warm day, I'm off to make hot chocolate and finish our minion puzzle!
