Snow Day

7+ inches of snow
30+ mph winds
60 extra minutes in bed
2 excited boys home from school
1 Daddy working from home

45 minutes curled up on the couch
1 Veggie Tale Movie
1 little boy on my lap
1 little boy head resting on my shoulder all snug under a blanket.
1 not so little boy tapping through his iPod still laughing along at the movie

2 sets of rosy checks
1 dryer full of snow clothes
2 cups of hot chocolate
1 extra bowl of marshmallows
3 warm and happy bellies

70 Carmel Truffles
206 Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Truffles
50 sugar cookie cut outs (to be decorated later)
2 Christmas CD's
1 Christmas tree set up by a pair of big hands and decorated by 3 sets of smaller hands

3 showered/bathed boys all warm in their jammies
2 candles a glow; one for hope and one for peace
3 Christmas stories about God's amazing gift
3 gifts of my own all tucked into bed
1 blessed and thankful mommy for the day that we've had
