Fun in the Snow

Well we are still in below zero temps, but it could get up to a whole 6 degrees today. Whoo hoo! It's a heat wave. We had a halfway decent day on Tuesday so the girls played outside while I shoveled the new six inches of snow we received. In October, you got lots of leaf pictures, well now you get lots of snow pictures!

Andrew got home Tuesday evening and we were all happy to have him home again. It's been especially nice for me because he took most of Wednesday off and is working a little less the rest of the week. He keeps telling me everything will be back to normal on Monday. Gee, I sure like this more laid back world. Wish it could stay that way! :-)

The girls and I have befriended a nanny and her charge (Jody and Arianna) at the mall. We met in the play area about three weeks ago and have met there the last couple weeks. Next week we plan to visit the zoo. Apparently there are some fun things to do inside and we can ride the monorail which I think Ella and Lily will really enjoy. Ari is about 6 months younger than Ella and they get along great! And Jody and I have an easy time talking. I seem to get along better with her than any of the moms I've met so far.

Other than that, we're looking forward to having my cousin Cindy, her husband Shawn and their daughter Emilee over for dinner tomorrow night. And we want to give a shout out to Eric, Gina, Hunter and Tanner who welcomed a new daughter/sister on January 24th (three weeks early!), little Mykenna Fisher Isaacson! Welcome to the family!
