Too Much Snow!!!

This past weekend, we were treated to another winter storm. Compared to what they are getting on the East Coast, our snowfall seems minor. However, I think this is easily the most snow I've ever seen on the ground. We are all ready for spring. Here are a few pictures of the boys in the snow.





I guess there's no better time to be snowed in than when the Winter Olympics are on. I seriously have been so unmotivated to do anything but plop in front of the television and watch. We have all found it a bit humorous that the weather in the midwest is colder than it is in Vancouver for the games right now.

In other news, last Friday we got to attend Cameron's Valentine's Day party at school. When we were kids, Valentine's parties were strictly for the kids. The only adults present were the teacher and the room mother. Not in the present day. Now, every party that is put on at school is a public event where the parents can come and celebrate with the kids. When we were kids, all parties were a sugar laden event with cupcakes, candy and enough sugary fruit juice to send even the most calm child into a crazy hyperactive state. In the present day, kids are given 1 plate of treats that involves fruit, popcorn, and a cookie. My how things have changed. We did enjoy watching the kids make their Valentine crafts and play Valentine bingo. The highlight of Cameron's day was that he got to show off "his baby" to everyone in his class including parents, teachers and substitutes. It's so nice to know that Cameron is so proud of Noah.





This weekend Cameron will be at his mom's again. I have a full day on Saturday of catching up on house work before the Olympics begin broadcasting in the afternoon. Then on Saturday night, Stuart and I are actually going to leave this house without a child. We are only going to our neighbor's for game night but it's the first time we've been out of this house without Noah. I am very excited. On Sunday, Cameron receives his bobcat badge at the annual blue and gold dinner for Cub Scouts. Stay tuned for pictures of the big occasion. Hope everyone has successfully dug themselves out of the snow. Have a great weekend!!
