Another Snow Day

2 Snow Days in Less Than One Week! This is a big one today though....14 inches possible! Kaitlyn and Colin played inside all morning. They know daddy goes to work to make money. Colin said this morning that Daddy was not going to make any money today if he did not go to work because of the snow day....aren't kids cute:)

Here are some pictures of them playing.

Kaitlyn and Colin were playing a counting and color game with daddy.

Colin was quite proud that he found the orange chip in the game!

Kaitlyn was clapping for herself that she beat her brother at the game while Colin was goofing off and putting the chip up to his eye being silly:) Boys will be boys I guess!Kaitlyn was rocking out on her guitar that Auntie KK bought her!! Colin was rocking out and jumping around so much that he jumped right out of the camera screen when I was taking the picture:)Daddy snuggled the kids with their Caillou's from their Uncle Bill and their other dolls.

Dont Kaitlyn & Colin blend in so well:)Kaitlyn will make such a sweet mommy some day! Colin will be such a good daddy too:)

Building Twin Snow Blobs

We went outside today to make snowmen with these adorable kits that Grandma Young bought Kaitlyn & Colin to make snowmen. Our snow was not the packing kind so Cam could not make snowballs so he shoveled a mound of snow for the kids. We ended up having to make "twin snow blobs" instead of twin snow men. The kids had a blast!

Mighty Casey Ride On Train

Our neighbor is letting us borrow her Mighty Casey ride on train from the 1970's from when she was growing up. We bought a battery and charger for it today and it really perked up two sick kids!!! Here are some pictures of the kids riding the train in the basement.

Again, who would know that they were sick???

The last picture is of the kids and I in our matching Nike hats that the three of us wore today:)

They Won!

Snow Day and Sick Kiddos

You would never know that Kaitlyn and Colin are sick by these pictures. They have pretty bad coughs and runny noses. Cam is off for a snow day and we are so happy! The Superintendent called here at 5:30am and Cam was already on his way to school. So Cam quickly ran to school and then came home to use his new snow blower that he got for Christmas. He loves when it snows so he can use it! The kids have been playing around in our bed and Cam fell asleep on the couch. I guess its a lazy day in the Willis house.

Happy Friday!

Mr. & Mrs. Fix It

Here are Kaitlyn and Colin playing with Colins tools. They seem to love fixing things lately! I think Colin was trying to saw apart their "time out" chair so it would not able to be used for time outs anymore.

Tessy and Tab Books

I found this adorable magazine subscription called Tessy and Tab and subscribed the kids to it. It comes every 2 weeks in the mail and they love it. Here they are reading their books! They think they are Super Star Readers as you can tell by the picture of them with the sunglasses:) We sent in these pictures with a story about why they love Tessy and Tab books to their fan club contest to try and win a free 6 month subscription so maybe they will win. They carry these books around with them and read them over and over all day long.
