Today is the beginning of the weekend. Im wondering who will come across my path this weekend. I am excited because tomorrow is my son's birthday and then Monday is my husbands. Should be a fun and exciting weekend!

Following the norm of this winter there was another 4 inches dumped on our town today. I am tired of this winter but took this as an opportunity to help out my fellow neighbors. I had the day off of work. The kids had the day off of school. So we bundled up and headed out to shovel out my neighbors to the north and south of our house. At first I was wondering what did I get myself into with this deed, but by the time we were done the mood had lightened and we were having fun. The kids were plummeting me with snowballs and we decided to make a nice snowman that stands proud and tall in front of our house.

The kids were thrilled with what we had accomplished. We came inside to warm our bones with some lovely hot chocolate topped with whipped cream. While we were enjoying our treat the doorbell rang. It was my neighbor. She brought us over a fresh batch of homemade chocolate chip cookies. It went very well with our hot chocolate. By the time we were done we all had a smile on our face and it felt great to get the exercise and to have my neighbors coming home to shoveled driveways!
