Oh boy, we just got hit with a nice little ice storm. Thankfully it was a quick one and melted the following day. But sickness combined with winter weather means Mazen hasn’t had school in two weeks. He loves school, so this isn’t a good thing! Cabin fever for sure. Rather than climbing the walls, he’s just climbing me!
We made snow day pancakes for breakfast. Great Harvest mix!
Plus bananas and cinnamon vanilla sunflower butter (Naturally Nutty brand)!
We met a bunch of our friends at Sweethaus this week for a party to celebrate Elinor’s 4th. Can’t believe we used to get together at Sweethaus before the first generation could even crawl and now round two are starting to walk! This was the best we could do for a group photo!
Lunch this week was leftover Blue Apron forbidden rice salad with salmon on top. Minted yogurt on top! (Recipe coming!)
And a Blue Apron chicken dinner that hit all the comfort food requirements. The lemon zest in the pan sauce was a hit!
Lastly, our yard is currently in that “will this ever look nice again?” stage. Check out the mud! They are re-grading it to bring it up to the patio. Hoping when it’s all finished we can host all of those above kiddos for a big yard party.
NEW SURVIVOR TONIGHT! If you have never watched, now is a good time to start!! : )

Erin @ Her Heartland Soul says
So many kiddos all together! They must have had a blast!
Kelli @ Hungry Hobby says

Laura says
I bet Mazen is interested in the backyard happenings! Has he been out to play in the mud?
Andrea @ Blog Strength says
I totally get the cabin fever, it was in the -20’s here last week, so you froze your face off just steping outside. So we avoided leaving the house whenever possible! I can’t wait for the warm weather to be back!
Amanda says
Thank you for always reminding me about survivor, lol! I love it and I always forget about it!
Katie @ Peace Love & Oats says
That’s so adorable that those same kids have been getting together for so long! It would be amazing if they keep in touch for years and years to come. Some of my closest friends I’ve known since I was two!

We built a pool last summer.. and I distinctly remember standing there looking at the mess thinking “what in the world did we just do?” Hopefully you’ll get your reward soon and be able to enjoy that new space!
