Growing Up

La de da and good morning lovelies! I trust you slept well. If you didn't I can highly recommend humidifiers! Everyone that I recommend this to ALREADY has one and is not to impressed with my insight. Whatevs. Humidifiers for everyone!

Did I tell you that we got a snow storm yesterday? Yep! Over half a foot of the sprinkly little flakes fell on our Midwestern oasis. Not as much as poor Virginia, but pretty good for these parts. In fact, the place where I earn my keep let us off early. Woo woo! The big wigs sent out an email saying, "Get outta here," and we were gone. We don't mess around. I came home and just about got stuck in the driveway. Then, I cried.

Nah, I actually moseyed around the block and tried again. The driveway won.

So, I parked on the street and hiked up the hill...I mean driveway....inside. Then, I did something I have NEVER done in my whole life!

I shoveled the driveway!

Bonnie supervised and waited for daddy to get home. I should have taken a picture of Bonnie spazzing out when Mr. Schalk came home. She loves that man and is not afraid to show it! She's impersonating Waldo in this pic.

Excuse me while I go try to find my gold star for being a full fledged adult.

Have a wonderful weekend friends!

xoxo, Rachel

  1. That's a lot of snow!! If you want to visit some warmer weather you're welcome to com to Houston. Ha! :) My mom said that they are having record snow storms back where I'm from, Kansas City. I kind of miss the snow. Hope you're having fun!

  3. It's hard work! My honey is outside right now...snow blowing the driveway. We learned the hard way after a few years in Minnesota.
