Just last Sunday, I was hunting for gloves and parkas, was helping frozen boys thaw out by the wood stove and was making hot chocolate.
Today, I brought Jesse out the easel and paints. He mixed up bright blues and pinks, suddenly over his "love of Goth".
Nicolas and Gillen did some spring deck cleaning and painting. We kept throwing off our shoes. And instead of snow balls, there were water balloons. Nice.
I am an unschooling mom of two boys who are now 12 and 15. I have been married for seventeen years to Nicolas who is from Belgium and is an organic vegetable farmer. We love to travel but farming doesn't always make that really easy. Fortunately, we have close family in Holland, Montana, NY, MA and Australia so in order to see them we hope to be forced to occasionally take a big trip... in the meantime, we farm, play yu-gi-oh, play baseball, make up games, watch movies, play world of warcraft and hang out with friends.

It is hard to believe! This time last week we had 6 inches of snow and no power. We were without power for 4 days! Today it was 75.
OMG! No power for 4 days? We only lost power for 4 hours. It was short enough to be quaint.
