organized chaos.

the way of the Schei home.

yesterday was another snow day for the Everett and Snohomish School districts here in Washington and we made the most of it... I LOVE snow days.  Most parents are concerned with the affect that it has on the end of the year and that now we're getting out on whatever day.  That doesn't even occur to me - maybe I'm still a little immature at heart... or as some say, young at heart.  When the phone rings at 5:00am and the all familiar phone-tree recorded voice tells me that "Everett Schools are closed" I get giddy!

We went out sledding at 8:30am... Elijah arrived around 8:45am... we came inside around 10:00am... Madelyn and Nolan arrived to hang out at that time and stayed until 2:00pm... at Noon, Jess and the kids arrived giving us a 2:4.5 adult to child ratio -- it was a packed house!

Here's the day in photos... from sledding to wrestling... wearing each other out and making each laugh...


Reminds me of Elle MacPherson... Christie Brinkley... no?




Elijah just wanted to eat the snow... he was so funny!

William taking Riley down...


Ben befriending and loving on Eli - this was a blessing since he's really dealt with jealousy of Eli in our home - not anymore!

Hello Adorable.




Regan surprised Riley... awesome.

... then William surprised Riley and Riley did some crazy downward dog thing.

... when can we all do this again???

Until next time...
