Snow Day!
It is terrible here in Illinois. This is what my house looks like this morning:

We broke our back door trying to open it this morning. My house is a sheet of ice. We have about 4 inches of snow. On top of that, we have freezing rain, so it is definitely an interesting combination we have going on out there. We watched the traffic report starting quite early this morning, and at this point, Bill isn’t even going to try and go to work. The bad thing is that he left his laptop at work, so he’s trying to do what he can from his cell phone. It actually was hailing and snowing at the same time this morning if you can believe it. We are hoping to take the kids out a tad later and maybe build a snowman. However, the snow is more like ice chunks, so I don’t know how easy that is going to be.

Handmade for the Holidays
My kids are still pretty little to be making handmade gifts for the holidays. I do remember doing it for my parents though. I wonder if my parents appreciated all my hard work or not. I am just kidding. I know they do since I appreciated all the hard work that Madison put into this handmade ornament she made at school for Christmas last year:


When we decorated the Christmas tree, we definitely put it up. I made sure I saved it so we could put it on the tree this year. I have a special gift the kids are working on for the grandma’s for Christmas this year. All I can tell you is that it will require some art skills. I don’t want to give away much more than that.
What handmade gifts have you received or have you given?
