Snow Day!

We had a very snowy weekend. It all started on Thursday around 11am. Alex and I braved the roads for Gymboree but they were definitely getting icy by the time we got home. It continued to snow until about 3pm at which time Phil's boss sent him home. There wasn't any snow in Kalamazoo so he was able to make it home without any trouble. We had a nice anniversary dinner at home with the boys. During the night, we got another 6-8 inches bringing the total up to around 12. Even East Grand Rapids schools were closed. By mid morning, however, the sun was out and the roads were plowed. Alex and I took a trip to the mall so he could run around and we ran into a few friends at the breakfast food. On Friday night, we ordered in pizza. Phil and Will had a camp out in the basement. Will really looks forward to their camp outs!

On Saturday, we went to the library for a while in the morning and then ran a few errands. Then we went out to play in the snow! We build a small sledding hill off the deck that Will enjoyed going down. Alex had fun crawling/walking in the snow. Then we went for a quick sled ride around the block. Grandma and Grandpa came over around 6:30 to watch the boys so we could go downtown for a nice anniversary dinner. We went to Bar Divani and had a delicious meal.

On Sunday, we went downtown to walk the skywalk for a bit. This was the first time that Alex was actually able to walk parts of it himself. Then we came home for lunch. After naps, Phil and Will spent more time in the snow building a snow fort and a snowman.
