The snow is here!

The snow is here and it doesn't appear to be going away. We got dumped on about 1 week ago and I was keeping my fingers crossed that it would melt...no luck. We've had a couple of days slightly above freezing and it rained instead.
Here is a picture of Natalie and Michael in the first snowstorm this year. Natalie loved the snow! We had a great time making snowmen and women. Michael, on the other hand, is still deciding whether he likes the snow. Michael doesn't like that his feet sink (and sometimes stick) in the snow. At school, Michael stays on the sidewalk versus playing in the playground (on the snow). Poor guy!

Well, what do we do on cold yucky days? We cook. Natalie is quite the chef. In this picture, she made a mustard, oatmeal, water, salt, pepper, honey and sugar PIE! She tasted her work of art and she thought it was good!Michael is also fine tuning his cooking skills. He is becoming an expert in stirring, pouring and dumping.

Lastly, I thought I would share with you the picture below. We were in downtown Minneapolis going to a show (Curiuos George). Take a look at Princess Natalie's outfit for the concert.

She is beautiful (in so many ways)!
FYI - The concert was super cool! Natalie loved every minute (except the intermission). Michael managed to watch about 1/2 of the show.

Happy turkey day!

I hope you are enjoying this time of year....no matter what the weather is like.
