The day went well. Ella off to school at 7:00 a.m., bus delayed ( she is usually on the bus at 6:50a.m.) due to the snow from the night before and all of it on Monday. Monday night we added another 5" of fresh snow to whatever we got from Sunday. Beautiful day, Dale plowed the driveway and the sun was out all day. After lunch Adam decided to get his snow gear on and climb on some of the piles of snow. Following a good 2 hour nap, Claire and I ventured out in the snow for a while to join Adam and Grandpa.
Chores are going well with the cattle. Dale is in charge of them. They are getting big, all will be 2 years old this year. All are due with "child".
Ella gets home at 3 p.m. and is a "starvin Marvin", Kelly warned me ahead of time to make sure there is something ready to eat when she walks in the door.
Our evening was make your own burger ( I did the frying) but we added tomatoes, onion, pickles,lettuce,etc. They soon became known a Bindl Sliders ! Mostly because they slipped around as the children grabbed them to eat. They were delicious.
Tubby time was last night. Ella and Claire tubbied together, while soaking we worked on Ella's spelling words. This weeks words were shortened due to 1 less day of school. Her challenge word this week is: disciple, she can spell it. Today she does her talk about George Washington, this was delayed from Monday. We will go to school to listen to the class.
Adam has school today. Dale will take him in at 9:45 and school starts at 10, he will be done at 12:30p.m. Dale and Adam have a luncheon date today. I think Adam has already chosen Mc Donald's.
We got a call around 4:30-45p.m. from American Airlines that the flight was canceled, we were put on as a contact phone #. We tried to contact Kelly and Kent to see what was going on. Talked with Megan and she said that she and Kelly were in contact while sitting on the plane in Charlotte, NC so thought they would be at the Islands, WRONG !!! Come to find out, K&K did take off from Charlotte but ended up circling the Turks & Caicos islands, landed in the Dominican Republic and due to the pilot being close to overtime on flying hours they were returned to Charlotte. The problem was a hole in the runway at TC and they weren't able to land.
Talked with Kelly this a.m. She said that they were put up in a hotel for the night and that they would be taking off 10-ish Eastern time to head to the Island. More to follow.
Oh, I did say in the last note that I would tell you about the Naughty List: 1. Make a pillow castle 2. Eat candy 3. Watch more TV showes 4. Paint the cows and Adam said we will add more to it today.
Better go, have to feed Adam and get him ready for school. He is definitely not a morning person.Till tomorrow.
