So today turned out to be a snow day.
I have to say, I was kinda surprised...it wasn't that bad out there.
But it was raining last night before it snowed...so there was a sheet of ice under the fresh snow.
Cassi was supposed to have her field trip today.
She was pretty sad that she missed it.....
The day she was excited to go to school, she isn't able too....how ironic is that???
Anyway....
We started the morning by sending dad off the work.
Then I went back to bed cause I had a major bad headache....and babysitters home for the day :)
When I got up Madi and Elsie decided they had to throw a Halloween party.
(Elsie has an obsession with Halloween :)
So they chose the only clean spot in the house to plan and have the Halloween party.
It was pretty cute.
Madi came up with a 'quote the ghost' game.
How cute is that???
She is so creative!
So we had the party....
Cassi dressed as the Sandman.
Madi, a Witch.
Elsie, a Princess.
And Porter, Captain America.
It was a pretty great party :)

Then we got a call from Jenni and she invited us over for lunch.
The roads were not too bad...I stayed in the busy areas and we were good.
The worst part was when I got into her neighborhood.
But we took it slow and made safe trips to and from.
The kids had fun hanging out.
Madi spent a lot of time on the etch-a-sketch.
I told her maybe we spent too much on her Kindle for Christmas and should have just gotten the 'Original Tablet' :)
Port wasn't on his best behavior today.
I don't think he was super happy about sharing his time today...and he wasn't happy that dad went to work today either.
He likes his Mom and Dad time.
But he took a good long nap when we got home from Jenni's and he went back to bed not too long after he woke up from the nap.
Hopefully he is having a better day tomorrow.

And Elsie lost her tooth today!
Actually, funny story.
We were about ready to head out the door to Jenni's house, and Elsie wanted a drink from Cassi's water bottle (that had one of those crystal light packets inside...)
Well, Port walked by her and knocked her while she was drinking and she lost her balance.
As she fell she squeezed the bottle...so it got all over....
As I was changing her clothes, while she was crying, i pulled her shirt off her head and saw something fly....
I look at where it landed and noticed that it was her tooth :)
So I showed it to her, and she stopped crying for a minute, saw the tooth and smiled real big then started crying again and panicking because there was little blood.
Oh my goodness....dramatic much, little girl??? :)
Anyway, I got her changed and calmed down and then she got to go check it out in the mirror.
And she was excited to go and show Alex.
Silly girl!
I had to go back through her piggy bank to find Buffalo Quarters for the Tooth Fairy to use tonight :)
I should maybe get myself a stash of those, cause I am sure she will be losing more teeth soon....
*****
So it was a pretty fun day.
Didn't get really anything done.
I did do some laundry....
AND
I made my own laundry soap!
I can't wait to give it a try!
I hope I didn't mess it up...I will find out tomorrow.
But I am so excited about it :)
