ICE Day #2

Yep, that's right!  Today we were home for ICE/SNOW day #2.  Tomorrow we will be home for ICE/SNOW day #3.  This is a crazy few days for us Texans!  The high today was a whoppin' 19 degrees.  All of Texas is experiencing "rolling black-outs" to conserve energy.  We only had one rolling blackout today for about thirty minutes.  Whew!  We have been stuck inside the house for three days doing our best to keep Nater-Tot and Jordy entertained.  Bryan ventured down our icy street to Walgreens for some treats.  Thank goodness!  He came back with Cherry Coke, cookie dough, and Play-doh...perfect. 

We built forts in the living room.




We watched movies under the fort.



We baked cookies.



We played basketball.



The boys raced around the house on their firetrucks.  They are FAST!  You would not believe how they can maneuver around all the furniture without slowing down!


We played in the tent and tunnel.




We played with Play-doh.


So, what are we going to do tomorrow?  And, would you believe that I just saw an article on Yahoo that there is snow in the forecast for Dallas again this weekend.  REALLY?!

What fun! I hope you come up with something for them to do today. Maybe a game of hide and go seek or an indoor scavenger hunt :)
