20 Things I Want to do with the Snow Day

At 7 am, it is not yet snowing but school has been canceled, along with our morning activities, in anticipation of 12" or more of snow. Here are 20 things I would like to do today...


1- Have cherry vanilla pancakes & hot chocolate for breakfast
2- Take the kids outside to play before the snow falls and collect pine cones (and remember to pick up the sled laying in the back yard before it is buried in snow)
3- Play play-doh
4- Take down remaining Christmas decorations and put up Valentine's decorations
5- Make a fort in the family room
6- Finish laundry
7- Make popcorn & watch Tinkerbell & the Lost Treasure
8- Finish Valentine's for school
9- Take kids out to play in the snow while I shovel the driveway
10- Fill bird feeder & make list of birds that come
11- Make Pine cone Paintings
12- Bake cut-out cookies
13- Make an obstacle course
14- Vacuum family room
15- Play a board game
16- Build a maze for the Zhu-zhu Pets
17- Make fireworks with bubble wrap
18- Teach the Tumbleweed to play "Around the Clock" solitaire
19- Clean out the car & let the kids ride bikes in the garage
20- Have a dance party


All that and I need to finish my scrapbook pages for tomorrow's book club after they go to bed. I will be lucky if even half of this happens, but it is good to have goals, right?
