Digging Out, Leaving On A Jet Plane, And Ha-choo!!
printable version

There's a LOT more snow on the ground now. We got hammered by the blizzard and the boys (mostly Matt and Zach) spent a couple of hours cleaning up the mess last week. It's still pretty deep out there but at least we can get the cars in and out of the driveway. As promised, here are some blizzard photos.

Richard is leaving this week for a trip to Wisconsin. One of his best friends is throwing himself a surprise 40th birthday party (yes, you read that right). I told Richard to go and have fun with his buddies. I'm staying home with all the kiddos. I have too much work to do to be taking trips right now. Besides, we're planning on taking the RV there to see the relatives late in the summer.

Matt and Aubri are home for winter break right now. The house is full and warm and happy. :)

Unfortunately, Mason, Max, Frank and Matt have a cold.

This week's Maxism:
Max enjoys helping with Mason's bath each night. When happy Mason comes out of the bath, he's swaddled happily in a big, fuzzy towel and looks just adorable. The other night, after drying and swaddling Mason, Max looked at him, smiled, and said, "How 'bout we not name him Mason. How 'bout we name him Baby Jesus?"

Hugs to all!
