This week at library story time they brought in real firefighters and a real fire truck! The kids were so excited (so was I). The firefighters were really nice and talked about fire safety (of course) and then everyone got to sit in the fire truck. It was a super fun day and now they all want to be firefighters. :)
Today we woke up to snow! This has been the craziest fall weather I can ever remember. We started out this month with over 70's and now it snowing and it is supposed to keep snowing all week. The kids are over the moon about the snow and have been playing outside all morning (we declared it a snow day and will finish school in the afternoon). Homeschooling can be really hard sometimes, you have to take advantage of the few perks that come with it. :)
P. really wanted to join in the fun so I set him on the porch for a minute and he got to touch the snow. He didn't want to come back in.
This is our future wood stove hearth. Dan is hoping to have it done by next week. I can not wait to have the warmth of a wood fire to keep us warm on these cold winter days to come. I love a wood stove and think a house is so much more cozy with one.
Stay warm everybody!
If that's all it ever snows I would be over the moon!! :-)
