Nuggets of Cute

Today, I am grateful for all of those moments that remind me why I love being a mom. Tonight, after dinner, the kids arranged all of the dining chairs into a square and told me they were flying to Disneyland. I grabbed the camera:

I finally found my camera cord, so prepare yourself for the ensuing avalanche of photos and videos. 

We also resumed our date night babysitting swap... at least once a month, we get a date, then we also get the chance to have all of the kids' friends over while their parents go on dates. It's fun. Here we are kid spinning... it's like B-boying, only more nauseating. Madeline gets the award for fastest spinner. 

It was snowmageddon in the Seattle area last week. We were snowed in for a few days and Cameron worked from home. It was fun at first, but I got cabin fever towards the end. But it was nice to finally get some snow. I got my fill and now it's gone. 

The kids made a snow fireman. Oh the irony :)

We went sledding (we went down some big hills nearby, but I only filmed the driveway sledding. Sledding confirmed that Sunshine is fearless and it scares me):

Cutest two-headed monster I've ever encountered. 

And, of course, we ended the sledding with hot chocolate and marshmallows (while I drank super boring herbal tea... food allergies suck)

 Apollo was on a sugar/snow high.

It sure made my yard look pretty :)

What's you favorite snow day tradition? 

Oh, and by the way... my facebook/blogging fast lasted about a day. I like it too much.... still striving for balance, though.
