It's Spring Break. TWO long weeks of Spring Break. We're supposed to get 6-12 inches of snow over the next two days. Doug left for Maryland yesterday. Keegen is sick. Soren is sick. Bode is B-O-R-E-D.
I always feel badly when we have a day like today. A cooped up day. A day where i had nothing planned. I didn't feel like we could have kids over because of the sickies. I didn't push to send Bode to a friend's house. We were, for a few brief hours, going to go to an indoor trampoline place. But because of the impending storm, we bagged it (it still hasn't started snowing yet). I couldn't get motivated to do anything crafty with the boys. I've been grumpy. The boys have watched a ton of TV. Soren hasn't taken good naps.
The one good thing we did was an impromptu family home evening. I made some cards of the Apostles/First Presidency last year and lamenated them. So we did a memory game with them to start talking about and getting excited about General Conference in two weeks. This way the boys can recognize some of the people giving talks. When a match was made, i had a little bit of info to read about them (i.e. how many kids they have, hobbies, interesting facts; etc.). I need to make some cards of the female leadership in the church so the boys don't think only men are in charge. If it hadn't been "impromptu" i might have had my act together and had some ready. Anyway.
Here's hoping for a better tomorrow.
