More snow!

Well, I haven't posted in the last couple of days because both Jack and I have been sick...I'm feeling a lot better but Jack is still pretty sick. But, I wanted to get back on here and let everyone know what we've been doing the last few days!

We woke up this morning to more snow....I wish I can say I am happy about this. The last time I was happy about snow was MANY years ago when I was still in school and was looking forward to a snow day! :)

Jack was pretty excited to see it...he ran into the bathroom, got on his stool and used his binoculars to check out the backyard yelling, "Momma! There is snow everywhere! It's even on my playscape!"


Yes, I think his binoculars are backwards! LOL!


We also made a sock puppet. Jack saw a kids show where they made one, and that's all he's talked about for days! So, we whipped one up...we decided it should be a dinosaur! I think it came out pretty cute!
I was VERY excited today...we received three postcards today from our Postcrossing.com project!!! Today we got one from Canada, one from the Netherlands, and one from Finland!! We'll add that one to our world map in the playroom with our Germany postcard! This really is addicting to me!! I get Jack pretty excited about it too...he thinks it's cool that they had to fly in an airplane to get to us!!
Have a great day everyone!!

Busy Day!!

Today was busy, busy, busy!





Our day started with a playdate with my mom's group! The kids played for a while, then made a 'groundhog puppet'!! Great job to Rebecca who came up with this cute idea!








Our next stop...Chips Pub for lunch with Auntie Scoot and baby Riley! Then our next adventure started before we even left the parking lot! It was GEOCACHING TIME!! :)

We found our first cache right at the restaurant, then headed to another cache that was hidden at a pretty cool rock painted to look like a big turtle!


Another pretty neat cache that we found was hidden at an old one room school house in Clinton! It was built in 1801!
We found 5 caches today, bringing our total to 105!!
(for info on geocaching, go to http://www.geocaching.com/!)

We weren't too far from Auntie Scoots house, so we made a quick stop there too! Tell me my niece isn't the cutest little girl in the world!! She just loves to smile and loves talking!!


Last stop was looking for postcards for our newest hobby, postcrossing! (http://www.postcrossing.com/) I'm brand new to this, but hopefully I will be getting postcards from all over the world! I'll fill you in more when they start coming in!
