What to Do on a Snow Day?

We were able to find lots of things to do indoors! here are Uncle Eric, Aunt Katie and Elliot the taste tester dipping candy. They are making buckeye's, a family favorite! Can't you tell by the expression on Uncle Eric's face?
Grandma Cindy does not have many dolls, but Mal's made due with her wooden nesting dolls. She named the pink one...something Rose, and you had to call the doll by that name. The Gold doll was not her favorite, but would do in a pinch.
Colton got a Rubik's Cube from Santa, in his stocking, but maybe Santa should have brought one to Uncle David. We literally did not see him for 2 days, but due to his puzzling abilities he became a Rubik's Master and could solve it in a few minutes. He even drove up to Woodburn outlets to buy a 5x5 cube!
Here are the kids and dad trying out a new card game. I have to say, daddy was a trooper, up for anything!
Grandma Cindy got a new dice game called Spinners, and had to beg the kids to play it with her. It looks like once they got started, it was a good time had by all!
Here are some of the jacuzzi fans! Sometimes the kids got in twice a day! It was really fun to have that option, and so pretty to see the snow falling and steam rising from the water at the same time.
Here are some of the "big boys" getting in for a dip. They played some pretty tough games of racquetball and some fierce basketball games during the trip. I guess this was relaxing for their tired muscles!
