We enjoyed lots of surprise days off this week!! We were off Monday for MLK Day, and then had 2 SNOW days mid-week Wednesday and Thursday, before finding out last night that we're off today too! All of my school plans were totally wasted and we'll probably be making up these days in some form or fashion, but right now it's okay because SURPRISE DAYS OFF! We've enjoyed our week and days off to the fullest. It was a special, lazy, "Winter break". ☺
Here's my favorite happenings from our week...
*Last Friday night we enjoyed our 1st movie night of the New Year! Layton chose Planes and we all loved our Friday night movie and snacks. Then we had another movie night on one of our snow days and watched The Secret Life of Pets. It was my first time seeing the movie and I laughed so hard throughout the whole thing. Haha! Another good movie night mid-week was my favorite.
*The boys are obsessed with bey blades right now. Thankfully it's a fun indoor activity that's perfect for all 3 of them.
*Layton's snowflake activity from school cracks me up. Where did he come up with that?? Ha!
*Monday morning we slept late and then Terrell took Garrison to a friend's house to play so we hung out with our littles before picking Garrison up around 1:00 and heading to the teacher store and Chick-Fil-A for ice cream and play time. It was an awesome day off.
*And like a date for us while the kiddos played! ☺
*We also tested out the boys new Jenga game they got for Christmas and had so much fun!
*Things definitely got intense and exciting! (I love Austin's face.)
*And hilarious! ☺
*The outline of the concrete around our pool was laid this week and it's almost time to pour!! I am getting so, SO excited for summer! Being trapped inside a TON during the extreme heat of summer is worse cabin fever than the Winter months for us. So this a big, big deal. #dreamcometrue
*Don't Break the Ice with these 2 while Terrell and Garrison got in a game of pool upstairs was super fun. #snowdayperks
*It started snowing late Tuesday night and we woke up to beautiful white scenery Wednesday morning!
*After breakfast the Selph 5 layered up and ventured out into the cold!
*The boys finally got to enjoy their sleds that we've had for 3 years while we've waited on snow! I snapped these pictures from the videos we made. ☺
*They had the best time.
*And thanks to our hilly yard, they had some pretty good options for sledding.
*Garrison, Layton, and Terrell stayed out a while longer playing on the trampoline and sledding while me and Austin came inside to thaw out. Austin actually woke up sick Tuesday night so he still wasn't feeling 100%. Thankfully everyone has been fine since then.
*Snow Day visitors! Our favorites!
*I'm reading Church of the Small Things by Melanie Shankle right now and it's so good. She makes me laugh out loud constantly!! But this "serious" paragraph on marriage is one of my favorites of the book so far. So good and so true.
*These 3 are back into baseball cards.... and football cards, basketball cards, soccer cards, all the cards. I love them playing together. Especially when it's something calm and quiet. ☺
We're going to make the most of another snow day today by hanging out at home, going to lunch, visiting our new library, and possibly sneaking in a nap! And this weekend is going to be low-key and laid back. Woohoo! Happy Friday!!
