Like my new banner? I read a great tutorial from Sarah at Clover Lane. She’s so smart! I’ll be on the lookout now for free background paper for future headers :)

Now if only Picasa had guidelines so I could line my pictures up! As a past Photoshop guru, the imprecision of Picasa drives me nuts!

We had a really nice day today. Alan went back to work, but Lex had the day off. Rosy left, Amanda came to work, but the kids and I just chilled. I turned down invites places and canceled company plans and I think it’s exactly what they needed. We spent a lot of the day doing this:

Eve won Sorry (I think this was actually yesterday... I lose track!).

Apparently Lex won Double Sorry, but I didn’t get a picture of that.

Lex built the solar boat today.

They spent A LOT of time with these trains today. By the end of the day they were playing together nicely, like they were actually friends. Like they should! It reinforced my plan-canceling day.

Lex's homework this week was to make a "Family snowman." He came home with paper plates and needs to return with a snowman. I think the "family" part meant we all got to help. Eve and I let Lex lead the way and we all worked together.

Overall a very nice day. One that ended with two happy kids in bed and asleep by 7:30pm! Now let’s all hope that everyone goes to school tomorrow, happily. I hear rumors of a snow day though…
