Continue reading →: snowed in, pt 2It has not been a good weekend. We started out okay, taking advantage of the snow by taking 30 minutes to get bundled up to play outside. Only to come back in after about 10 minutes. Holdy and I had a spa day while GB napped. But then come afternoon,…

Continue reading →: snowed inYou know you’re a parent of young kids when your first thought when you hear about a snow storm is, “oh crap, I’m going to be stuck inside with those jerks for several days.” I’ve already made pancakes from scratch and had to explain the difference between “blizzard” and “lizard”…

My parents chose to drive down to Disney World (about a 15-hour drive) and bravely offered to take one kid with them.
