2009 Snowfest.

Jacob came into bed with me at around 8am. We were all up around 8:30. After breakfast the boys rode around in the tractor and cart with Adam sitting in the cart. They said they were going to “Olies (Fazoli’s)”. They’d come to me asking for more breadsticks. After Sesame Street was over we got out the art box and some toilet paper tubes. I've have many of them and the other day the boys were pretending they were binoculars by holding them together so I thought it might be fun to makes some. The boys choose their paper colors and then decorated them with markers. Jacob and I then glued their papers onto the tubes. Then I glued and stapled them together. Then I tied some string on them. I got out the stuffed animals and we set up a zoo. Then we got out our binoculars and drove to our zoo. We had fun looking at the animals thur our binoculars. After lunch we went outside to play. It was in the low thirty's again today but today it was windy. It felt nice by the barn because it was blocking the wind. We were surprised when Daddy came home from work at around 1:30. We decided to go to the Zehnder's snow fest tonight. While I got things packed the boys had fun playing with Daddy. Jacob and Daddy kicked the ball back and forth to each other. Both boys fell asleep on the drive there. We got there around 3:30. Vikki and Kenzie met us there at around 4:30. We all had a great time together. It was fun walking around and seeing all the different snow and ice sculptures. Adam was very excited to see Elmo and Clifford walking around. He gave both of them high fives and had a big smile on his face. If they were around he didn't want to take his eye's off of them. Jacob didn’t want to go near them. Lastly we walked over to see the animals. There were camels, goats, pony’s, and alpaca’s. Adam also went on a pony ride. Around 5:30 we headed home. We stopped at Fazoli’s for dinner. Got home around 7:30. Jared took care of the animals. Before starting the nightly routines, the boys had fun spinning around and making themselves dizzy. They were funny to watch. We tucked them in bed around 9pm.
