I know I'm in the vast minority but we
(my pup and I at least! )
loved last weekend's fast snowstorm!
It's breathtakingly unbelievable that we set an all time snowfall record at 86.6 inches!
That's over 7 feet of that beautiful white stuff!
Saturday evening we took Maeve to the Commonweal Theater in Lanesboro to see the play Holmes and Watson. What a good mystery!
And I vowed to not give away the ending! Haha! That's difficult for me but so far so good! Go see it if you get the chance!
Sunday morning snuggles...
We took another hike between Beaver and Weaver on the closed road. There is evidence of receded (very high) waters, like in waist deep over the road. The debris is caught that high in some of the trees lining the road. What an amazing record setting spring we're having!
We found some items for the science table
(the eggs are not real though)
Here's a birthday girl from last week!
"Look" at the watches we made. Get it? Look... Haha!
This sweetheart's aunt donated this fun art set to our classroom!
The kiddos have really been using it to create some pretty cool items this week!
This wonderful kiddo brought our Ww treat from last week...
wafer cookies!
