More Snow Days
Have you ever had days that just ran together in one big blur? That’s this week for me. Not only did we have a (fairly pointless) snow day on Tuesday, and another (totally legit) one on Wednesday, we ended up with two more–yes, 4 out of 5 days this week, we were all stuck at home.

School was closed today in anticipation of snowpocalypse–but that ended up being entirely unnecessary. Oh well! I was so busy trying to work, and spend time with Brian when I could look away from the computer, I hardly took any photos today at all! We did build our Lego Creator Family House set today,...
