Anna was so excited to wake up and see snow this morning. I was so excited that she slept until after eight. Before we went outside Anna reminded me to bring the camera so we could get photos of her making a snowman. Unfortunately the snow was light and fluffy but that made it much easier to shovel since I still don't know how to use the snow blower. Once we came inside Anna announced she wanted to go to school. Today was the first of many snow days to come living in Maine.
We helped Jack celebrate his sixth birthday last night at Chuck-E-Cheese. We also celebrated his fifth birthday there last year and what a difference a year makes. Last year Anna just wanted to put the coins in the machines. Now that she is three-and-a-half she like playing the games and collecting the coupons. She thought her receipt was her prize so we escaped before she discovered the prize counter. My favorite part of the night was watching Anna try to skeeball. She tried so hard but the ball kept rolling back to her.
2011 New Year's Eve was much less exciting than last year when we celebrated Joey and Anna's wedding. We had a nice dinner with Anthony, Laura and the boys. The kids enjoyed some Wii Just Dance before a brief PJ party.
