Another Snow and This Time It Counts

Image
We had another snow storm this week. We actually got probably 4-6 inches of snow. It shut down the kids' school for the entire week except for Monday which was President's Day and they had it off. Go figure I finished my classes today. I am glad they are done. They beat me up pretty bad and I have some concrete ideas on how to do better next semester.  Work is good, it doesn't really change much. Jenna is doing well at work as well. I think she is finally finding her niche there. The kids are great. They have enjoyed lounging around the house all week, while the adults worked. Slackers!  lol. Here are some pictures of the kids enjoying the snow.  My colorful terrorists ... j/k back deck  Do you wanna build a snowman?  working on the snowman  basic snowman  Aly is a snow angel  Finished Snowman Andrea the snow angel - not a body dump.  *i kill me* I want to say a special Happy Birthday to Matthew Langevin...

A slight storm and a pretty good week!

Hello, It has been quite a week here. Andrea got her report card, She got a B in English but A's in everything else. The B happened at the last minute, which is discouraging. :( We have not received Alyson's report card. I think they forgot to give them out on Friday.  The kids had their Valentine's Party.  They weren't supposed to get any candy/goodies so I made sure not to put such things in the gift bags, and surprise, she got a bunch of candy in those that were returned. Figures I try to follow the rules and look like the house on the block that gives out toothbrushes. Andrea got her second xmas gift.... an electric scooter. She has not actually been on it yet. It goes up to 30 miles per hour. Watch out Chesterfield, crazy kid on the loose. LOL Jenna has been working, and just started a new set of classes. I am finishing up my first semester back and still trying to dig myself out of the hole I'm in. Wish me luck. We had a bit of a storm yesterday,...

February ... Almost Valentine's Day!!!

Happy February, Well, it's been almost a month since I last posted.  We finally had our first snow day. There was about an inch on the ground. The kids loved getting the day off. We celebrated my birthday as it was January 28. I spent two glorious days at the beach all by myself.  And took off 10 days from work, I have never done that before. It was awesome. :)  It was wonderful, even though it was January.  The kids finished their second quarter of school and first semester of the year.  We are now waiting on report cards. I believe that they come home this week.  I have no doubt that they both did fairly well. All Jenna and I ask is that they try their hardest. Jenna has started working her normal shift as training ended. I think she likes it. Today, Aly got her haircut. She had asked me about two weeks ago about getting it done and I finally remembered today. So off she and I went to Hair Cuttery. Her new "do" below is so ...
