Blizzard

 So, a couple weeks ago I booked Wilderness Lodge in the Dells for the girls and I to enjoy as part of their Christmas present from me. Boston, Moose and his son, Quincy were also going to join us. Quincy is 11 years old and gets along with the girls GREAT!

I was going to surprise them Wednesday after school and tell them that they were going to miss school Thursday and Friday for this short trip! I was going to be the cool mom! HA!

I was so excited to surprise them!

Then news of the looming storm hit. I knew if the weather was bad on Thursday that we were going to have to cancel. If we cancelled on Monday, it would only cost $30.....if we waited, we would lose the deposit of $300. I was so sad to cancel but knew it had to be done.

Wednesday afternoon they cancelled school for the 2 days they were going to miss anyway!

Here we are on Thursday afternoon and I want to kill them already. We did a gingerbread house last night (when we were supposed to be decorating cookies with my family but the weather ruined that too). The gingerbread house went exactly how I thought it would.....with one kid crying as she stomped upstairs to her room. We started a puzzle last night that we finished this morning. We got out play-doh, they have had PLENTY of tv and electronic time and still every time they are in the same room with each other, they fight.

How many more days til this Christmas break is over? SMH.
