It's a heat wave!

OK, it's not really a heat wave but the kids think it is. We can actually go outside and play! And it is forty degrees warmer this week then last week (-20 to 20)! We are hoping it gets even warmer tomorrow so we can build snowmen and take pictures of them!

Yesterday, we played outside in the morning. Today we played outside in the afternoon after nap time.

Lunch yesterday was homemade chicken noodle soup with lots of veggies, everyone ate it, some only ate the noodle but it's a start! Today we had hot dogs in buns, salad, alphabet shaped potatoes and pickles. It is a good thing I bought the gigantic jar of pickles from Sam's, the kids love pickles! Tomorrow is Spaghetti and homemade meatballs, the kids favorite!

Making Pizza

One of our favorite cooler weather projects is making pizza from scratch. The kids love rolling out the dough, spreading the sauce and covering it with their favorite toppings. It is a really fun way to make lunch! The kids ate more pepperoni then the put on the pizzas. Preston & Holly ate more then anyone else. Preston was quite cute covered in red sauce.
