Cold Day: Part 2

The kids were off of school again today due to extremely cold temperatures...brrrr!  I think we maybe got to 6 on our back porch(Mitch kept checking).  So today I had to be really creative.  All before lunch we had made a puppet theatre, sock puppets, a tent under a card table, watched half of Shrek, and read 4 books.  By the time lunch rolled around I was exhausted and forgot how much work it was to entertain cooped up kids.  It was a super long day, I won't lie, and I am looking forward to tomorrow when they say the high will be 32.  Oh, I should mention, Mitch has school off tomorrow and Friday for teacher in-service so he only had one day of school this week, lucky kid!
