Snowed In Again~

Another big snow storm rolled into the valley. Not sure how much more snow I can take. We have been almost two weeks of school. However, I have had a great time at home with Emma and feeling good about getting things done around the house. Because of the snow Rob, Emma and I had some time to relax and how some fun.

Taking a break from shoveling!


Family time~playing with play-doh

Rob and Emma took some time to play with potato heads. They had a great time. I wonder which one is Rob's?

Look to the right-heehee

Being snowed in gave Rob and I great quality time together. When we put Emma down for her nap we brought out the games. Battleship was our first game. Rob beat me by a couple of pegs. Then we played Monopoly. We began at 1:30ish and didn't finish until close to 10 pm (of course we took a few breaks for Emma). At one point Rob was winning, then I was winning and then Rob made a come back. I pretty much lost everything~hotels, houses, property, and all my cash.


We also have been spending sometime downstairs, which Emma loves because her toy room is down there. Also, Rob and I can catch up on some WII playing. I have to share how Emma gets down to her toy room. Yes, she is using the doggie door. She figured out very quickly that Briggs could get downstairs by using the door, and that she could do the same. So, whenever she is missing or very quiet we know to look downstairs.

Getting caught and taking her baby

My birthday was on Sunday (the day of the Super Bowl). My day began with Rob fixing me breakfast, Emma grinning from ear to ear wishing me a Happy Birthday, and Rob helping me reorganize our storage room downstairs. I received my first birthday call from the Rays~they sang beautifully. Then Goddy, Beth and Anna-Grace called~they sounded great. Finally, after Nana got out of bed she called me and sang~she did a great job too. Thanks for all my birthday wishes!
Before the game Rob took me around town to show me what my birthday gifts were (because of the weather he was unable to get out before my big day). Our little road trip began with a tasty vanilla latte. Then we headed to High Tech where I will have a relaxing massage. A little down the road we came to The Fashion Gallery, our last stop, where I will purchase my croc boots. Can we say romantic. I have the best husband. Thank you Rob for making my day special.
We ventured up the hill to the Campbell'sto watch the Super Bowl. Snow covered roads were not going to stop us from watching one of the best Super Bowls I have ever seen. We had a yummy dinner and then enjoyed the Saints beating the Colts.
Even the girls were excited about the game
The weekend has ended and the snow has stopped, but winter has not. We are due for more weather in a couple of days.....I am ready for spring!
