How to survive a blizzard (hey, we have had practice now!)

Yes, here in Delaware we received about four seasons worth of snow in less than a week.  Two back to back blizzards with four children a dog and a cat gives us liberty to say we are now experts on blizzard survival.  =)

First you make pancakes…

  

 

All the while remembering that you have sworn off sugar.  If I can’t eat it than I can at least photograph it.  Yes, I said that out loud.  I am turning into a pathological picture taker and need some lessons soon!

Then you light candles in case the electricity goes out…

Preferably the smelly ones that mask the odor of preteen boys who leave wet, stinky, snowy socks EVERYWHERE!

Take more pictures of the mayhem nature is creating outside.

Listen two your ten year olds “funny” jokes.  =)

Have your father read you a book.

(We bought this book for Ben but Natalie likes it too).

(These are a few of Ben’s favorites these days).Then if you get really bored you can take pictures of your gorgeous cat who always looks like art in motion.  

I love how even in the messiest spots of our house she finds comfort…wish that was the case for me!

Then when you get REALLY stir crazy start moving furniture and accessories around in your house.

I stole the lamp from my bedroom and the end table from our back porch…may leave it there for awhile…at least until the snow melts.

Have popcorn.

Put floor puzzles together. Play dress up have tea with Snow White.

And the cutest little man you know.

And if all else fails make more pancakes!
