SNOW!

I used to hate snow. Hated everything about it. The cold, driving in it, ice. I did like to watch it fall tho. Snow days were a plus. I think the reason I hated it so much was due to the fact that I had a paper route for 4 years and had to be out in the cold for an hour or less each day after school. I remember coming home and my legs being so red I thought I was dying. I think I was also looking for an excuse to quit having a paper route. Today I realized that I don't hate the snow anymore! Maybe it's because I have this huge car that can crush the snow and barely fish tail like my old car. I keep getting the urge to text my cousin to see if I can steal her kids again and play in the snow. Then I think twice and realize that's taking it a step too far and I should ease into this new love of snow slowly. One plus of having this new car is that when I warm it up in the morning, it grows a mustache and makes me laugh each morning. Who else would this happen too?

Have you ever been so excited for getting new toys donated for you to use for work? I think I mentioned the other day about getting three large trash bags filled with blocks. Well I finally got to take them into the church and opened the bag and couldn't believe my eyes. They came in different shapes! Octagons, triangles, bridges, rectangles, and squares! My brother doesn't understand my job at all and would probably think I've lost my mind by being so excited over toys. I was just expecting the normal blocks not super shapes!

Seriously, would you be excited?

I know Emily Rancuret would be :)

I realized how far behind I am on my Photo-A-Day Challenge. I think I did the first 3 days and its now the 13th day of the month. So I decided I would catch up a little today. I'm going out of order but I figured that doesn't matter! So for day 4 it is supposed to be a {Letterbox}

This is my letterbox. It has cards in there from at least the last 4 years. They are from everyone who means something to me. My grandparents, my aunts (Linda, Pati, Krista, and Jill), I have pictures from different occasions that I either attended or missed. Oh and a pair of old glasses. I probably could get rid of those.

Day 11 {Where you sleep}

This would be my bed. Pretty big, pretty comfy. Hopefully you can't see the holes in the wall. If you can, please ignore them. I was told I could re-paint the room. Then my father changed his mind and said just to patch the holes. If you know anything about patching holes, you would understand how crappy my wall will look. It might not be that big of a deal, but I have a few holes that have been patched already and I think its ugly and something needs to be hung over them asap.

Day 14 {Something you are reading}

My great friend Shannon is letting me borrow the last two books of the Twilight series. I started this in November. I would read it during our lunch breaks and talk about what I just read. She gave me the movie for Christmas and my goal is to read the book and then watch the movie. I'm on page 239 out of 629 pages. I'm getting no where.

Day 25 {Something you made}

This is the chalkboard I made last week put to the test. It worked great! It sat perfectly on the floor and the kids can draw on it and it barely moved.

I'm finding more reasons to use my Chalkboard spray paint.

Day 30 {Nature}

This is a picture of our street today. I love the winding road, the trees, and the snow.

I always love taking pictures of this road.

Well that brings me up to day 9. Maybe I can catch up more this weekend and take more pictures! Enjoy your weekend friends!
