We made the most of the five day weekend last weekend. There was the normal weekend, then two days of "ice storm", and then a day off of school due to the band teacher passing away suddenly. Logan and I both had she and her husband for all of our musical education (5th-12th grade), so it was very sad news. Her funeral Mass was one of the most beautiful I've ever attended.
We spent time in the pretend kitchen and the real kitchen. Banana bread for snack one day!
When I suggested doing puzzles as a family there was a surprising YES from everyone!
Daddy loves teaching the boys to play chess, so we did that too. Sit down for this next announcement:
Logan used some Christmas money to buy our family a very fancy chess set...instead of books.
I told you to sit down.
It was a great idea...I think we will all enjoy it for years to come.
This game is REALLY REALLY hard. I am shocked how difficult it is to solve the puzzles on the back of the board. 
When your preschooler is just as excited about Norwex cleaning products as you are. ❤️ He begged me to teach him how to use the rubber brush, so I showed him how to use it with his dusting mitt. He dusted everything he could find! Then he wanted to rubber brush my entry rug, so I'll teach him that next.
We played more games, got out every toy in the house at some point, had a family movie afternoon (So much better than a movie night with little kids!), popped popcorn, had a neighbor over for dinner, baked, took extra long baths for fun, slept in(ish), and read lots of books. It was as good as a staycation!
