Snow Day

Last Monday it finally looked like Winter around here. The kids were out of school so they put on their snow pants and headed outside. Colton lasted only a few minutes because it was freezing!


Kirsten and Daddy stayed out long enough to make this snowman.


Max loved walking around in the snow.







Kirsten loves doing experiments so I thought it would be fun to show her how to make marshmallows. I've never made them either so it was an experiment for me too. They were a huge mess we had marshmallow cream all over the kitchen but it was a pretty neat process.


I saw on Pinterest some ideas for a Minute to Win It Valentine's edition game. So that's what we did for FHE after Kirsten told us a story about Penguins who fell in love. We took turns wrapping each other in toilet paper.










Stacking conversation hearts.


Throwing marshmallows in a bowl and moving conversation hearts with a pencil from one bowl to the other. It was quite fun I must say.


Max kept putting conversation hearts in his mouth and then spiting them out. So Colton would pick them up and try to clean them off.
