Snow at home

Just a few pictures of the winter wonderland outside.

Snow Day Again?

Starting this past Sunday, a snow system moved across the area. It was pretty huge. (Did anyone see the radar?) Well, I guess non-stop snow for two days means only one thing... SNOW DAY! And not one, but two! Monday's day was not as productive as I would have hoped. It was mostly filled with worrying about Rob at work and if he would make it home alright. *He did* I did conquer some neat projects and I will post some pictures soon.

This snow day, Rob stayed home from work. He decided that it wasn't worth the risk of driving on roads labeled as "completely covered". I think it was a good idea. Plus now we get to work on some things we have been putting off. I love unexpected time at home.

*Side note* I was exploring different things on the internet the other day, and I remembered that at Mic and Shinae's wedding we had taken some pictures in a "photo booth" they had set up. I didn't have a copy of those pictures, so I went looking for them. Well, I found them. I really like this one, so I thought I would share.

Snowed in?

I don't mind. As a matter of fact - I liked the blizzard. I woke up, decided that it wasn't worth going to Sioux Center for work, and proceeded to make these...


They are a recipe from one of my favorite blogs

The recipe is from one of my favorite blogs - Bake at 350. She is amazing! This was my first attempt, and other than working on my piping technique, I think I did ok. I also made peppermint marshmallows.

We also spent some of our day watching the birds outside feasting at our bird feeder. It quite the site, seeing all the birds fighting the blizzard - having to fly sideways to get to our porch. They decided that it was warmer by our window. Ollie and Neko thought they looked a little tasty.



We ended the night with some homemade Chinese food and a movie. A wonderful way to spend the snowy day.

How did you spend yours?
