It's a blizzard, or not, or yes???

Okay, so the weather man can't decide what we are having for the next few days here. Last night it started snowing and really came down, but from being so warm (50s) it didn't stick to the road. So the good news was we still had off today??? Anyway, now they are calling for a few inches tonight, some more tomorrow and again tomorrow night! Seeing that we haven't had much snow here since moving to VA I find it hard to believe, but if I didn't have to teach I really wouldn't mind. I love to teach, but with being sick and pregnant I would rather be home right now. On another note, I finished up 2 layouts today and they both turned out really nice. As soon as we get some sunlight I will take pictures and post them. I also just finally found the new Fiskar border punch at 2Peas along with some paper I want to use on an invite for a girl party. Quite pleased with that purchase, now hopefully it will hurry up and get here. I have to run, the kids were supposed to be in bed by now, but they are still up. I made a dessert for tonight too, so as soon as the kids are in bed Daddy and I will enjoy! Yum!

Family Night

So the kids decided that they would prefer mommy's pizza to Papa John's - so much for my dinner plans! So we made homemade pizza again tonight and UPS showed up about an hour before dinner with a new season of Alf. Pizza and movie night; I am really looking forward to being back in a home again - cooking meals and taking care of our family. Anthony brought home his first book today, my little boy reads now and really quite well. It is hard to believe that he is growing up so quickly. It is snowing again tonight so we will see if we have school tomorrow, just a delay will work for me b/c the high schoolers have a field trip today. The kids and I are all sick; Marc is mostly over the cold, Tracy and I are probably the worse right now, and Anthony always seems to just be the same - sick or well. Anthony is a real blessing at nights b/c he always sleeps, thanks Bud!

Not like I planned

I should be used to that line, it seems to be the story of my life! Our day as a family had a few others involved as we woke up to about an 1" of snow, which of course meant Mike had to go shovel and salt sidewalks. That didn't last too long, but then the electrician showed up and out he went again. We finally left the apartment at 11, but then didn't really have a game plan. My only hope for the day was Dunkin Donuts, but we never made it. We tried 5 fat guys (burger place in Blacksburg) for lunch which had a great hot dog and then I was tired and it was nap time. Mike dropped the kids and I off at home to get naps while he went and got groceries. By the time everyone was done napping and Daddy made it home, it just seemed to late to get donuts. I think donuts is a Saturday thing - it really just seemed like too much of a hassle, especially when it was really just to get a smoothie! I did manage to finish up my lesson plans for the next 2 weeks which will make things easier for school. The weather is calling for snow again tonight/tomorrow so we will see what happens with that. Supposedly Friday is going to be 50s again; what a change from the kids playing in the snow today.
