Seize the Day

As a home school moms there are days that you just have to seize because there are some other life activities to be experienced. Two such days occurred last week. Do not be alarmed we "did school" before we took advantage of the other really good things life has to offer.

Thursday Mackenzie took Carter, Reegan, Cael, and Quincy sledding at Squaw Creek, which has a huge hill and also a smaller one. Here are some photos from that event.

Another day occurred on Friday when we had the opportunity to go snow shoeing. This is something I have always wanted to try out. I was really excited and the day was really nice. I am not a fan of cold weather and of being cold in general and so a day around 32 degrees was quite nice. We hiked for about an hour going a 2+ miles. Mackenzie, Reegan and Addelynn joined me. Here are some photos from this life experience.

Oh, and on Friday I took a "real age" quiz and the result was 37. I will take the negative 4 years. I do think a little less red meat and a few other adjustments and I could get that down. However, do not be fooled this had nothing to do with mental age. I am sure I would be way younger there!

Went to Wal Greens today and got some Huggies diapers, and Dove mens body wash for $2 and change. Used coupons and the $10 they gave me last week. They gave me $9 to use again. Will be searching the ad for a way to use that $9 into more good stuff. I know I will get another package of diapers.
