Snow Days

Last week, we got slammed with a ton of snow. It was great in that we were able to go outside and play in it. However, it made it so that we missed the opportunity to go to the temple with Mom and Dad (Erickson) and then on Thursday, Sean got sent home from work at noon. To top it off, he got a call on Friday saying that he wasn't to come in to work due to the weather. Who ever heard of a snow day for work??? But it was okay with us. We got to play with dad and he was able to go to ballet and tumbling with us. Who knows, the way the weather has been acting this weekend, he could be home again tomorrow. I guess I'll have to put him to work myself!

Birthday Season Is Upon Us!!!!

Build-A-Bear
For the kids' birthday party, we took Grandpa and Grandma Erickson and a couple of their friends to Build-A-Bear and everyone got to make their own bear. The kids had a ball and Gma and Gpa even got to make their own souvenir bears! We had so much fun!

The kids have taken over Sadie's (our dog who isn't living with us at the moment) new dog bed that we just bought for her. They think it is their mini bean bag that they can sleep on.
Jaxon got a hold of the peanut butter jar and was handing out spoonfuls to everyone. If he could, I think he would live off of peanut butter!
