Our first big snow of the year!  The boys (by tomorrow) will have had 4 (yes, I said 4) days off for snow this week.  I personally think today and tomorrow is pretty silly, but I don't make the decisions.  We got about a total of 10 inches here at our house over Tuesday and Wednesday.  On Wednesday we got about an inch of ice.  There are a lot of people without power, apparently.  We are not one of them-thank goodness.   I'm beginning to think my boys are really old men in disguise.  It took us about 20 minutes to get the gear on, and after about 10, they complained they were too cold.  They were ready to go inside for hot chocolate.  Our neighbors little guy came over for a little bit, and while his Mother and myself shoveled our driveways, the boys played.  It is so beautiful here, with all the branches covered in snowy ice!

Nathan's concert at school



Tonight Nathan had his first concert of the school year.  He got a new shirt, and his Mom made him part his hair on the side, as well as tuck in his shirt.  The tucked in shirt lasted all the way up til he got on stage!  They sang several nursery rhymes (most of which I have never heard, I'm told I"m out of the loop), and did a great job.  Afterwards, we got to go to his classroom, to see his latest artwork and desk. 
My little one, Michael loves babies!  He spent the entire time playing with a little baby girl in front of us, snapping pictures of her on our camera.  I almost got a little concerned that her parents might get a little freaked out of us having all sorts of pics of their little one on our camera.  (You never know these days!)  Anyways, I'm convinced that he is going to grow up to be a great baby sitter, as he loves to entertain them!
