Moo's favorite part of Tuesday was building a snowman. The snow was not rolling well, so we had to pile it up and then carve out the head and abdomen. We used a flower pot for his hat and ello construction parts for the facial features and buttons. Twigs and glove finished off his arms. Hot chocolate and Girl Scout cookies finished up our snowy day afternoon. I must admit this was my favorite part of the day too!
We have a LOT of Girl Scout cookies in the house right now, but I was in the mood for Rice Krispy treats. So I had Moo help me make some. Even though they came out kind of dry, making them was Moo's favorite part.
Tonight was the Daddy/Daughter Dance for Mikayla's school. J and Moo got to do the Hokey Pokey, the Cha Cha Slide, and the Chicken Dance. They even did a hula hoop contest! How could that not be her favorite part of the day?
Oh no! Chasing boys! It's started already! Well, not really. Moo said her favorite part of Wednesday the 7th was chasing "L" and "Z" at church. "L" is her cousin and "Z" is a boy in her class at school. I didn't ask her if she caught them. The chase is where the fun is!
To start, I should let you know that geocaching is our family hobby that involves finding hidden containers, hidden all around, using a GPS. Tonight, we went to a night time event cache and that was Moo's favorite part of today. At the event cache we found 21 caches around two trails at the Wilderness Center. We used flashlights and our GPS to lead the way around the icy trails. Although it was around 3o degrees out, we were dressed for the weather and had a blast! To top it off, Moo won some arrowheads as a doorprize!
Moo knows how to melt her mama's heart! "Drinking hot cocoa and spending time with you" was her answer about her favorite part of this day. A day can't start out much better... both our schools were closed due to the icy conditions of the roads. We had pancakes for breakfast and went to the library in the town next to ours. As we left the library, we saw some friend in the soda fountain shop close to where we parked. We went in and visited and Moo got some hot cocoa. We met the guy who owns the shop. His grandfather was a pharmacist in that same shop along time ago. After we left there, we met up with J and went to my sister's to play cards. That's where Moo had her second cup of chocolate indulgence!
