Christmas Break

This year I kept Devin home most of Christmas break minus 2 days that he went to Be A Kid so that I could get some class prep work done.  We had a lot of lounging around and relaxing while he was home.  We played games, watched movies, did school work and art projects.  The best part was just being home and enjoying it.  It has been so cold this winter and really hard to go out and play in the snow so if it does warm up we try to get out for a few minutes.

Devin got a few new legos for Christmas so worked hard to put them together by himself.  And Jordan just likes to relax and lay around all day!!!!

 This is how he played a video game downstairs one of the days.  Wrapped under a blanket to stay warm.  Because we are to cool to put a top on!!

 One of the nicer days.  A little backyard snow play time.

 A beautiful sunset on a very cold day.

 Fresh snow!!!  How beautiful, now it can be Spring.

 Working hard trying to get the driveway clean before dad gets home.  It did not last long.

 Sometimes you are just so tired that you will fall asleep anywhere.

 Playing a game of memory on the computer.

 Working on writing his sentences.  He did these all by himself without anyone telling him what to write.

 We played a lot of games over break.

 On January 7th the Governor of Minnesota called off schools in the whole state because the wind chill was going to be 40-50 degrees below zero.  So, what did Devin and I do, we went out for lunch.  Yes it was freezing, but I needed to warm the car up and thought it was best to take it for a little drive.
