Bring on the Snow!!

A couple of weeks ago the weather people (better known as a Meteorologist) said that Denver was going to get a huge snow storm so the entire city shut down in preperation. No snow just some flurries and rain...well on Thursday they said another storm was coming and that it would either be rain or snow. WELL they were right this time and get to keep their jobs....It started snowing Thurs. night and we woke up with a nice covering then on Friday it kept snowing, then it sleeted a little, then it snowed, and snowed some more. This morning we woke up and it never stopped and we had a foot and it was coming on strong!
Did I mention that Grammy & Papa came into town on Thursday from Tucson! We have had a big week planned while they were here! We had Jared's baseball tournament (minimum of three games), and Drew's benefit show of The Stinky Cheese Man. The games got cancelled first and then the benefit...SAD, SAD, SAD! The kids had no problem finding something to...electronics (WII, playstation, and their ipod's) kept them busy for a while and then the two younger ones decided the backyard looked fun! The oldest (man of the house) went out front and took care of business!
After Jared took care of the manly jobs he did what every man does best...back to CHILLIN'!

The youngin's decided that the trampoline in the backyard looked fun so they hung out in the snow for a while...they were sopping wet when they came inside but were all smiles!
Then the kids being Military brats get the brilliant idea to build forts and have a snowball fight! It was great and they take it very seriously...you will see from the salutes!
Drew...I love my OCD boy...perfect fort...snowballs lined up along the front inside (look carefully on the left)... Look at this cute girl...Wants to be like her brothers...here is her fort with all her snowballs on the right...And then my Jared who is taller than Gramma Jeanne! Doesn't give a flying flip about a fort he just makes snowballs to plummit his siblings with! Now before the war I have to remind Jared that the other two are smaller and this is not a baseball game! This kid can pitch (fast balls-really fast, curve balls, change up's and the list could go on) Here is a video of the war...keep an eye out for Jared's snowballs flying by (and remember this is him NOT throwing hard) FUNNY!


So now we had another day to hang out and relax...what should we do??? Hmmmmm??? What to do???? The kids are busy and having fun...Grammy and Papa are chillin'...what do I need to get done that has been neglected?? The kids closets? No fun.....then the light bulb flashes on....
Time for a glass of wine and Day 3 of the Disney Cruise! How often do you have a whole day? It's like the Breakfast Club...I love that movie....classic! Sidetracked...sorry...it doesn't take much...but really that was a great movie! (Such an 80's girl)

Nothing says snowy day like a glass of wine, a fire, and Day 3 of the Disney Cruise!

So grab a glass of wine, soda, coffee...and come on over

PS...We got 16.3 inches in Parker...the snow totals ranged from 15-22 inches!
