Snow day!!

A snow day was declared today...so what better way to spend it but outside!!!!  It snowed a lot, all day!  We started by sledding.
Then we made our way down to the lake where we shovelled our rink (and the girls!!  They both thought it was funny!)
It was a great way to spend this very snowy day!!

Anything you can do...SO CAN I!!!

Oh the battles ahead we will have, I can see them now...Miaya has her mind set that whatever her big sister Maddie is doing, she can do it too!!!  So, they brush their teeth together everyday now!!  It's pretty cute!

Project time

Maddie has a project/presentation this month on "Simple Machines".  One that she has built, with parental help.  Daddy helped with this over the holidays and they just had to finish a few things up today. 
 And someone couldn't work without her heels and princess dress on...!!!! 

Time for skating!

After homework, we were able tot get down to our rink and have a skate!  Papa stopped over and thought our rink was pretty neat!  (I have a feeling you will be seeing lots of "rink" pictures over the next while...just giving you a heads up!)

A little more fun...

Before we headed home from our getaway, we soaked in the hot tub one last time and then we went tubing near by! 
We took turns taking pictures of each other getting pulled up the hill...
And some going down...such a good time!
And the view was amazing!!!





We truly enjoyed each other's company and chit chatting until the wee hours of the morning.  And we couldn't have done this without Nana, you are wonderful and we soooo appreciate you staying here with the girlie's!  And Gramma, Maddie had fun learning how to sew and baking with you...thank you both very much!!!

Quiet evening..

We enjoyed a super quiet relaxing afternoon...we made some dinner on the BBQ, called our beautiful girls (and Nana!) and I kicked my hubby's butt in a good ole' game of Gin Rummy...he is a bit of a sore loser...hee hee!

And then we walked...

It is so beautiful here.  Quiet...much like home without the demands!
