The Big Snow

​This one is going down in history! We got 8" of snow here and we haven't seen anything like it since 2002! Wild times. It snowed alllllll day long on Saturday. I couldn't keep up with the snow on my car! We had a blast sledding all day Saturday and Sunday! We had soup with friends, we played our little hearts out, I shoveled our driveway with a borrowed shovel, and much more! My back is still sore!


Proud of my work!



Now they need to go back to school!

Ice Skating

​I took the kids ice skating at Extreme Ice Center in Charlotte and we had the best time! They all were very brave and just jumped right in, not caring if they fell or anything. It was awesome! We ended up seeing some friends from our neighborhood there too which was an added bonus!

Mexico

​Last Wednesday we scooted down to Riviera Maya for a work trip for Kevin. Sorta... it was through a consultant that helps him with his business. We were supposed to go Tuesday but the kids ended up not having school so we changed everything to leave Wednesday. We had to come back Friday still so it was a quick trip! 

We stayed at an adult only all inclusive called Unico. It was nice but we were not "wow'd" by it. We won't be back. 

Early morning by the pool. 

Not a beach situation



Then we headed back to Charlotte before the big snow storm!

Favorite Lotions

This lotion is one that my dermatologist told me to get and she was not wrong. I've had it for a year now and it legit works wonders. It's what I put on my face too! It doesn't smell at all, nor is it greasy but it's actually moisturizing. It's reasonably priced and easy to get - Target, Walmart, CVS, wherever. ​


This one I've used for years and I have one at work, in my car, in our mudroom, with my makeup... My most used tube is in my car because it's the one place I'm not washing my hands 18 times an hour. Highly recommend to cake this on the backs of your hands and let it sit!

Ice Day

​We had quite the ice event Saturday evening into last evening so the kids are off school today. I think they should go tomorrow as the streets are dry now. We will see!
