Snow Day #3...

Today is the third day in a row that school has been canceled in Athens County! All the kids (and moms) are a bit stir crazy. We try to fill time with sledding, baking cookies, throwing snow balls, etc. The weather should warm up today and over the weekend, allowing school to resume on Monday.

For the Iowa readers, yes, the snow if relatively minor. Iowa schools would not have canceled for this snow. And yes, it's not near as cold as Iowa. So no, I'm not complaining about the weather!

The Pirate Party

Nathan celebrated his 6th birthday at the community center. He invited lots of kindergarten friends and everyone had a blast. They dressed as pirates, got their faces painted, painted pirate flags, played pin the patch on the pirate, danced, played bean bag toss, and ate Power Rangers cake.






A highlight of the party was the climbing wall. The kids climbed fast and furiously, never quite reaching the top.

Nathan turns 6...

On November 27, we had a small party in our home. Nathan opened presents from close friends and family. You'll notice one of his gifts -- an mp3 player -- and the special cake that his mother made at his request -- strawberry with extra sugar.

Halloween!
