Last week, my husband and daughter were both sick. I repeated this mantra over and over: I will not get sick. I will not get sick. I will not get sick.
IT WORKED!
I spent a lovely weekend with friends. You can read all about it over at julie-k. In the meantime, I’m still repeating my mantra. We’ve got a busy week ahead. No time to be sick!
“Mama, I lost my fun at Lost in Fun!”
That’s what my daughter said to me the last time we left Lost in Fun, which is an indoor playground. I think they put something addictive in the bubble machine. We experience a major meltdown whenever it’s time to leave.
“But I LOVE Lost in Fun. I want to live here.”
Her favorite place to hang out is The Foam Pit. It’s basically a big hole filled with foam cubes. It’s dark and warm with black lights and music.
A few days after playing in The Pit, my daughter always gets sick.
I’m renaming it The Germ Pit.
I can’t believe I haven’t posted in a month! I will try harder in February. In the meantime, this pretty much sums up our January.

Did you know that blizzard conditions are because of high winds and not total amounts of snow? I didn’t until I moved to Nebraska. Those Old Nebraska winds were kicking it up this week and made some really beautiful snow drifts. You can find larger images in the gallery.
The last picture is Bella’s artistic interpretation of a snow drift.
Overall, we probably only got about 14 inches of snow. As you can tell, the wind blew drifts much higher. It also blew right down to the grass in some areas. You’ve gotta love Nebraska weather. It can be so beautiful!
I’m giving away one of my remote control pillow covers over at julie-k.

We got this hat for Bella for Christmas, but couldn’t wait that long to give it to her. She’s been asking for one all season. In fact, she’s been wearing T’s hat for the past few weeks. Now she has one that fits!
