Take a deep breath and...

be amazed that I am going to post all the missing pics. They are not stellar photography - just a low pressure attempt to chronicle life. We are getting ourselves back together here but the house is still a mess. The pile you see in picture 6 is now neatly folded and sitting on the floor of the loft where I left it last night. Progress.

We had a blast with the snow this afternoon and it is still snowing now! Unfortunately Sam had to drive home tonight and I've already warned him not to try and come down the driveway - I like our fence the way it is. It doesn't help matters that water runs across the bottom of the hill making a puddle right where he pulls the car into the garage. At 18 degrees tonight I don't think the tires will be able to manage that in the morning. And seeing I had to "borrow" diapers from my neighbor this evening as I have NONE, I need him to be able to go to the store tomorrow before he goes to work.

And now the pictures.

$5 lanterns at Target - BEST $10 I EVER SPENT

#4 - We haven't been outside in 2 days, it's 25 degrees with a wind chill of 18. We must, we must, we must GET OUTSIDE AND PLAY !!

#5 - Maybe I'll take a picture of my toilet and count it as #5 just to remember

#6 - The result of the stomach bug - 12 towels, 2 sets of sheets, 4 pairs of pajamas and probably a partridge in a pear tree somewhere at the bottom of the pile

#7 - Megan instructing the boys on making snow angels in the "snow" on the driveway.
