Snow Day

Today we had our first official snow day.

Unfortunately, it was more of a gray-snow-covered-by-freezing-rain-giving-way-to-slush-day. The kids didn't seem to mind and tromped through yard with abandon.

I love this little acorn hat (as we call it). O's Great Aunt knit it for him two winters ago and I am cramming his big ol' head into it for as long as possible.

We all warmed up afterwards with hot cocoa and popcorn. What is a snow day without hot cocoa and popcorn??

A few years ago, before we had a microwave, I searched and searched for an air popper and couldn't find one anywhere. I finally found this one at a garage sale for $5. The kids love to watch the corn pop and I love knowing exactly what the ingredients are!
