Wrapping Up Winter Break

Today I'm wrapping up our winter break - that went on fooorrrreeevveeerrr!  We had big plans and made a Winter Break Bucket List so we would be entertained for the 2 weeks the kids were out of school and Daddy took vacation.  Well, then this happened...


EVERY. SINGLE. DAY.

Welcome to Michigan!  We still managed to check off most of bucket list - we just eliminated the ones that required too much driving in the yucky weather :)

Some of things included renting old movies from our childhood to introduce the kids to (easy enough in this weather!), the AirZoo in Kalamazoo, snow tubing, ice skating, a few movies, etc.

We started strong on Christmas Day by seeing Star Wars The Last Jedi right in our hometown little theater.  The kids loved it, Bubba did pretty well and when he had enough I just gave him my phone :), and Mommy and Daddy will need to see it again to truly enjoy it - hahaha!




 There were a lot of days spent snuggled on the couch, drinking all the coffee...and, yes, my love of Rae Dunn runs strong!




Someone "borrowed" his sister's new slippers and I couldn't resist snapping a quick picture :)


This was at the AirZoo, which we have a membership for and LOVE!  It has rides inside and lots of fun planes to look at and explore.  There was a certain pre-teen that was a bit moody (When even started calling her Judy, referencing the book character, Judy Moody - lol!)



We took the short drive down to the lake almost every day to see how it was 
changing in the winter weather!



And on January 2nd, this guy went in for his 3rd pair of ear tubes - sigh...
He had his second set put in last spring but it appeared he was allergic to them - and had basically spent months with a raw and bloody ear...poor thing!  But he did great and is already telling us how much better his ears feel :)



So I did a crazy thing and joined a direct sales company!  Hello Pink is a brand new company that sells boutique clothing at amazing prices...and the quality is unbelievable!  The leggings might just be better than that other well-known company :)

There was LOTS of snuggles and movies and popcorn!

We escaped at the end of break and braved the snow to spend a great afternoon snow tubing!





 And then just when I thought we had survived the 2 weeks and school was starting up again - we had a snow day - lol!  Joke was on me!!!
