snow storm denise

We got another 8+ inches of snow today! And of course we were out and about in it. I worked last night, and then had to come home and take Rowan to school. Then get the house cleaned up and organized for a showing at 1015am. Eddie, Grandma Pam and I headed to Kohls and Walmart to waste some time before picking Rowan up from school and returning after the showing was done. So we were out slip sliding in the the snow, while I should have been sleeping. It was noon before I went to sleep.
 
Slept for 3.5 hours, then we were out snowblowing and playing in the snow. Grandma Pam decided to spend the night again instead of fighting the snow home, so Ed stayed down in Nashotah as well. I was on call at 7pm and luckily didn't get called in.
Sort of a sad/funny side note...Gizmo was outside with us while Grandma and the kids played, and I snowblowed. He was running around like a wild man on the side of the house and we thought in the back yard. Well, Grandma and the kids went to the back to shovel off the patio, and couldn't find Gizmo. Grandma could hear him whining when she came back out front, but couldn't find him anywhere. Well, the neighbors had an egress window put in this winter, and don't have a cover on it yet. Gizmo managed to fall in the window well when he was running. So, he was whining because he couldn't get out. So I had to go in after him. Poor guy was covered in snow. Needless to say, he went in the house at that point, didn't want to lose him again! Let's just say the window well is on order. Luckily he didn't get hurt!

kitchen help

Rowan helped make biscuits and gravy this morning. She sure loves to help in the kitchen. It's nice to have the help if only it didn't come with extra clean up in most cases.

3 Peas in a pod

Our friend Sloane came to play today! She loved doing naughty things with Rowan and Eddie, like jumping on the bed in particular. And some dancing and spinning in circles. Fun fun! I think Rowan got a little jealous during the playdate today because Sloane and Eddie were playing. But they all played fine in the end. Pretty cute kiddos!

Goldfinch Way

It's official...we have signed our life away and will be building in Oconomowoc. It is still 6-8 weeks before they start to dig (supposedly takes that long to get plans done and permits pulled) then 4-5 months from there. So hopefully we will be moving in in June or July.

Here are some iPhone pics of some of the house colors, cabinets, flooring and counters.
