But No Elephants!


Yesterday, we pulled out the paints, and the vegetables and got to work... 

It snowed all. day. long.  

It sort of reminded me of the book But No Elephants when Grandma Tildy refuses to let the elephant come stay with her...

"and it kept snowing"

"and snowing"

"and snowing"

Except for our day didn't end with the elephant walking our house to a sunny place.  

Kind of a bummer. 

That's okay though, we "kept eating!"

"and eating" 

"and eating"

and as most of you know, I love food, so my heart was in a warm place.  

Or should I say my stomach?

Don't worry I didn't eat the paint, and I'm actually happy to say that no one ate paint... that I'm aware of, at least. We did, however, have a discussion about eating paint.  Droiy insisted on telling Madi she would die if she ate it.  I disagreed, but didn't argue. Such is the life with a 2 and 4 year old.  

Emmitt snoozed.  









This morning we woke up to even more snow! And we decided to make a snowman since we're quite certain the elephant isn't taking us anywhere warm and sunny by now.  

But that's okay, spring break has officially arrived! (A day early, thanks to the snow!)
