President’s Day

Abe had the day off for President’s Day. We have been planning this day for a while, and we started off our dream day by watching the Olympics together. We haven’t watched the Olympics at all this year, mostly because we don’t get TV. We had to sign up for Cable and made immediate plans to cancel the minute the Olympics are over.

After we watched the Olympics, Abe got to live his dream and build a snow fort with the kids. Clarissa and I watched from inside. I didn’t get a picture, but they had a ton of fun. The neighbor kids came running and they all had an intense snowball fight. Abe won. (He kind of felt like Kramer from Seinfeld, beating all of the five year olds in karate.)

Then the kids came in for hot cocoa.

After hot cocoa, we rested while Naia and the girls played together.  Ammon also “baked” some cookies with the leftover linzer dough I made for Valentine’s day.

Before we went to bed, Abe and I watched the Olympics ice dancing competition. I asked him if we can be ice dancers in the next life. It is such an amazing sport.
