Sunday was St Patrick's Day.... so we wore green! My parent's stopped by the house in the afternoon to see our new piano. After the evening services, we attended a farewell dessert party for our friends Ike and Holly, since Ike has taken a position of youth pastor at another church in town. They will be missed.
On Monday evening, Abigail came over and watched the kids while Lydia and I attended a PTA dinner, celebrating 100 years in Springfield. The food was great, and we were treated to some neat performances by several high school students.
Tuesday, Lydia took Mysia with her for a accounting club meeting at college. Malachi and I did the bi-weekly grocery shopping and then came home for supper. .
Lydia had a PTA meeting before coming home on Wednesday, she was able to grab the kids before I got off work. We had time to eat supper and take time getting ready for evenings services without the rush like most weeks. As we were leaving church, Mysia suggested that we visit Grandma Taylor before heading home. So we stopped by and raided her house for more than an hour!
Thursday was a day of expectations. A winter storm was supposed to hit. We waited, and nothing happened until the afternoon, but even then, it was lite. However, by the time the workday was over, it was snowing heavily, causing our ride home to be longer than usual. The kids were excited. We ate supper, and the kids got to watch some tv before bed.
We were hoping to wake up on Friday to no school, but the roads were clear enough. They even plowed our street! Even though we were disappointed, we made the best of it. After getting home that evening, we built a snowman and threw snowballs. The evening was spent working on getting the house straightened and vacuumed before bed.
Most of our snow melted away on Saturday, but our snowman was still standing! Lydia went to work while the kids and I went to our weekly Tae Kwon Do class. The kids and I ate lunch and then they took naps while I worked on several projects. Once Lydia came home we ate supper and watched the "Karate Kid"... both kids enjoyed it!
