snow days

Well we are going on our 8th or 9th snow day so far, wow we have NEVER had this much snow. Last week the kids were out Tues-Friday. This week we were suppose to get 4-6in and woke up to about 10 and it kept snowing all day we have about 20 or more inches... I love it.. It is so beautiful outside and last week Ben was home all week with us.. Everything in town has closed even the bank which is a huge deal. Walmart is open but all the home offices and a lot of the warehouses are shut down... I love how this weather forces us to be a family and let nothing from the outside crazyiness of life get in the way! ~ well at least for a while..

So we have been up to a lot the past few weeks, when we haven't been snowed in. We have been baking goodies like crazy.. we have made thick and chewy chocolate chip cookies, brownies, peanut butter,oatmeal cookies, peanut butter chocolate bars and sugar cookies. They are all homemade and just yummy.. Probably not a good thing since Ive only been to the gym 2 times in the past 2 weeks!!
