yesterday was the perfect winter day. we woke up to a good snowstorm. normally it wouldn't be that fun waking up to a storm, but john had the day off so he didn't have to drive up to work. during the storm we got a knock on the door from a few neighbor boys asking if they could shovel our driveway for $5. i always love when kids try to make a few bucks, and i knew neither john nor i would ever shovel, so we hired them. eleanor got a kick out of watching the boys work out the window and kept knocking on the window and waving. when they were finished john took them out some hot chocolate and a fat tip. i thought the boys were so cute! while the boys were out working tiffany and paul arrived to helped with our basement. the storm was so bad it took them 45 mins to get to our house (normally it takes about 15 mins). john and paul got a lot done on the basement while tiffany and i watched the girls, made lunch and a run down to maverick. it was really was a fun way to spend a stormy day.

we miss you guys!
It was a lot of fun!! Thanks for the good company and tons of fun!! Those boys were really cute! I hope they made more money!!
I can't believe those boys only asked for $5. That was nice of John to give them a nice big tip. Well I tagged you :) Check out my blog for the questions.
Hey, how come those boys didn't come to my house? I would totally pay to have my driveway shoveled because Luke has only done it once this year!
