Doesn't Take Much

On Wednesday, we had some sleet and ice. The result was no Bible Study. boo! :(  However it was a great opportunity to complete our school work in the morning (yay!) AND spend time outside. The kids were SO eager to get out in the freezing temperatures. Are they crazy??? It was only 28 degrees. They played outside sliding around in the ice for about an hour +. They didn't even wait for me to pull out their snow boots from storage.

Below: Irina is getting ready to go down the slide on a sled. They also went down many times riding in the back of a dump truck. That is, until this Nervous Nelly (a.k.a - me) asked them to stop before someone tipped out and did a face plant breaking all their front teeth.

SOO good for them to burn some energy!!! It's that time of year that 

I need to be more intentional about getting them exercise. 

You can imagine that if they were excited about ice, they would be THRILLED to find a dusting of snow on Thursday morning. We extended our morning school break so they could romp around in the  dusting before it all melted.

It doesn't take much to entertain these four kids.
