Superhero Day

Jake ROCKED Superhero Day at the Junior High...haha..
 

let it snow...let it snow...

I was going to post these pictures last week, but my computer is SO slow....

On December 2nd we woke up to 16 inches of snow!!  The boys were SO excited!!  They played outside for hours...literally.  I shoveled snow for over two hours and they were out there for a couple hours after I came in.  I am SO thankful for a neighbor that brought his tractor over and plowed the driveway!!  The 2 hours I spent shoveling didn't even clear ALL of our sidewalks.  Seriously....why do we have SO much concrete :)  It is A LOT of work shoveling snow that is 16 inches deep.  BUT...the kids and I will take the snow anytime....we just did not enjoy the below zero weather that followed for the next week.

Sorry about the dark pictures....we thought we had the camera on the 'snow' setting, but realized much later that we didn't.

 Jake went out to shake the snow off the tree...he got covered.

Zac bringing the shovel home from the neighbors.  The boys went over to shovel snow at the neighbors...then had to go retrieve it so that I could shovel ours....we really need to invest in a few more shovels so the boys can help me shovel.

We are definitely hoping for more snow for Christmas.

Arrow of Light

Last month Jake received his Webelos award and his Arrow of Light award at pack meeting. They did a special program for the Arrow of Light award. Jake worked hard to get this award. He is such a good kid!!

It was a special night and lots of fun! Congrats Jake.  Thanks to Justin and Kiri for all the work they put into the presentation!
