Well, after 3.5 snow days last week, we were all finally back in the saddle, and back to the normal routine. And quite thankful for that actually! Although crazy enough, there’s STILL ice and snow on the ground in some areas around town, like on the sidewalk at daycare. Addison insisted on wearing the rain boots we found cleaning out closets this past weekend, even though they were about a size too big.

We’ve been working hard today! A few weeks ago, we got a new-to-us used trundle bed and a dresser from a friend of Nana’s. We finally really got moving on things this past week during the snow days, and we kicked it into high gear today. Starting with, moving Emerson’s old toddler bed into Addison’s room, and now she’s got her own big girl bed, that she’s very excited about. When she saw us working on it, she said, “Thank you, THANK you, THANK YOU!!”

Still obsessed with my homemade orange marmalade, and eating it as often as I can. So obviously I had it for breakfast this morning. Jeff actually went back to work today, but the girls were still out of school, so I worked from home while taking care of them.

We had a second work from home / snow day today, but today wasn’t quite as fun and exciting as yesterday. It was still super cold, but we didn’t have a beautiful layer of white ice & snow to play in anymore. We did however have delicious homemade orange marmalade on hot buttery biscuits for breakfast.
After it finally started really snowing last night, well, there was at least some freezing water falling from the sky, we woke up today to a legitimate winter wonderland! Of course we got bundled up first thing this morning so that we could go out exploring and play in it!

Literally everything they’re wore this morning was matching! Black pants with silver sparkles, new t-shirts, same boots, and giant puffer jackets that Nana got on clearance at the end of the season last year, that they just wore for the first time today. And they’ll certainly get some good use out of those jackets this week!

I’m officially obsessed with my new homemade “teddy graham” latte, with my homemade cinnamon brown sugar syrup. Soo yummy. And it’s never too cold for iced coffee, even when it was like 34 degrees this morning. Also, I mentioned to Nana last night that I wanted some taller, bigger Mason jars, and wondered aloud if I could thrift some. She was like, “Hold on one minute,” and came back with two of these tall, skinny beauties to send me home with!

Jeff and I both had the morning “off” from serving anywhere in church, so we had such a “slow” easy morning at home, and then all four of us went to church together, for the first time in forever!

First thing this morning, I woke up early and got the overnight French toast casserole that I prepped last night, into the oven. Then, while that was baking, I ran back out to the new 7Brew, because although we had coffee at home, we had no creamer, or even milk or cream, and I simply can’t drink coffee black like that… Plus, today was officially their grand opening, so if you bought a large drink, you got a t-shirt for free!

Little Sister was all bundled up in her “baby sheepy” jacket, as she calls it, on this cold morning.
