Snow day...

    

                           

I am going to try posting about our ordinary days again.... I miss writing about my family life but the time just slips by day to day.  We had a great Christmas with family and friends and have settled into 2014!  It has been a month of "stupidcold" as social media has nicknamed it.  For the first time in ten years of teaching, I was unable to take my class outside for recess for an entire month!  We used three "snow days" this month due to the cold temps.

          

 We spent those days playing inside, watching Teen Beach Movie, going bowling, and watching the Creekwood Red Hawks play basketball. We had our favorite person come along for the fun... Miss Aubree!!!  Drew is currently in LOVE with Teen Beach Movie.  He wears a red thirst and one of Addie's old black vest to look like the biker in the movie.  He can sing the lines and act out the parts.  It is one of the cutest things I have seen. 

Having fun watching Ross the Boss and Gabe the Babe!  The kids favorite part of the game???  When it's over they get to run on the court like crazy kids!  

We enjoyed a nice evening out with our dear friends sans big kids... Brooks still is too cute to leave at home. We laughed, ate way to much, and enjoyed each other's company without being interrupted. 

We have been obsessed with a little movie you might have heard of... Frozen!  Addie and I have watched it about six times, we watch it on you tube, and sing it everyday on the way to school.  At school my class was studying the letter e and Addie drew this on the board... Queen Elsa!  

Addie received awards for outstanding merit, Perfect Attendance, and 2nd top AR points for first grade!  She works so hard and was really proud to receive these.  

We were lucky and grateful for a sunny day one weekend and spent some time outside playing ball and collecting pine ones. 

So that is a start to what's been going on around the sanders' homestead.  We are nowgetting ready for Addie's 7th birthday and dance competition season.
