Snow Days

We really enjoyed our ice/snow days and took full advantage of being forced to stay home together. We tend to be homebodies naturally but lead busy lives so being able to just rest and be together was like a much needed mini vacation. We didn't leave the house for four days (other than one quick trip Jason made to the church and grocery store). Cody was wonderful, funny, sweet, snuggly and happy all week and I think he liked being all together too. Friday (day 4 of being home) it snowed on top of the ice so we were able to actually go outside and play in it. Cody enjoyed eating the snow while riding around in his wagon and then running through the snow. However, our fun ended when he did a face plant in the snow and was not happy with a red freezing face. Afterwards, we decided to drive to get BBQ for dinner and go to Target. It was fun being out even though the roads were still pretty icy...drivable but slick. Everything melted away by Saturday afternoon (day 5) and we got out to meet our friends, the Hayes, for dinner. It was good to be out of the house for a little bit and spend time with friends. We thank the Lord for rest and family time this week.
