The picture is totally unrelated to the post but you have to humor me. It's been snowing all day, gray skies and lots lots of snow. 8 inches can you imagine!!
I know some of you are snickering right now, especially if you live up north but that's a LOT of snow for New Jersey.
That said I love being stuck home because of the snow. All of us at home with nowhere to go, so we got ourselves busy. A messy kind of busy.
:: We made chubby crayons. I read this post from Mackenzie a while ago and wanted to try. The boys were fascinated by the melting crayons in the oven. I hope that doesn’t give them ideas about melting other things.

After the February sweater finished just in time to be worn in February, I’m making a valentine poncho for my little sweetheart.
Tomorrow we most likely stay home too and I hope to finish it.
So what is your favorite activity on a snowy day?
