Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!

We're ready, let us outta here!

Rocco trying (unsuccessfully) to get Dex to chase him into the snow

Mom will play in the snow with me!

Look! No leash!

How much snow did we get? Up to one Boston's chest.Rocco says, I'm tough, I can take it.

Meanwhile.... Dexter not so much, he was so kind as to remind us where the door back to the nice toasty inside was.

Come on Mom....Let's gooooooooooooo

Dexter samples from the snow buffet (don't eat the yellow snow Dex!)

Day One Snow

Dex likes to be in bed with his Canine Genius toy when it is snowing outside....

Or trying his hand at Scrabble.

Look Mom, day one, it's up to my knees!

Curling up with a good book

Comfy and Cozy.

Three days of snowy weather keeps the family in the house. We have found plenty of ways to keep busy though, reading, watching movies (Scrooged, Stepbrothers, Dark Knight), baking, and playing Little Big Planet and boardgames too! The boys started to get a little cabin fever today so out in the snow they go!

Canine Geniuses pt.1 Rocco

An indestructable, apparently Boston-proof toy. That is fun and education....and cool! That's canine Genius Toys and the boys each got one for Christmas, but courtsey of the snow it was an early Christmas present to keep the house calm and quiet while we're all stuck inside. All kinds of cool options we will be trying with these toys!

Canine Geniuses? pt2 Dexter

Dexter on parade

I can see them! They're in the bottom!

Check me and my toy out

Come out of there! You hear me?!

Yeah, I'm that proud of my new toy.

Dexter love, love, loves his new Canine Genius present. He spent the first five minutes doing a parade around the house with it then a lot of time showing it some serious loving.

Happy 5th Birthday Dex!

Blow out the candles and make a wish!

Bed and a blankie!

Quick! Get the squeaker!

Blankie lovin'

Family Movie Night!

We set up the projector on the wall and played DVDs, fun family night, even the boys seemed to enjoy it :)
