Crawfish, Fishing and Snow Balls

. . . not your usual weekend activities! On Saturday, we headed for a spur of the moment Hot Springs trip. We made a visit to Rendi's Mud Bugs and picked up some steaming crawfish and fixins' as well as 3 little pets (Snappy 1, 2 &3) --a new way of "playing with your food!". Amazing to me that the boys can chow down on some crawfish, while having three "snappys" swimming in the sink! (They let them go in the lake on Sunday)

The boys did a little fishing. . .it was snowing outside -- just a wet snow, didn't stick -but it was CCOOOOLLLDDD on the dock! They didn't last long, but caught 4 fish!!











We headed back to NWA on Sunday evening and were greeted by a whopping 10-12 inches of snow!! (snow was pretty beat down from the rainy mix that fell, so it was hard on the top --made it hard work for snowman building!)

Huge chunk of snow . . .










working so hard. . .

The finished product. . . Snowman and snow-scooby(Evan's idea for the scooby!)
You know those yards that keep snowmen up long after the snow has melted. . not at the Pitts' house. . . the best part is bringing DOWN the snowman . . !




















Snowballing. . .











Who knows what the rest of Spring Break will bring us if this was how it started! Jayden has a light case of the Pox - he has few new spots crop up each day, little itchy, little fever, but feels okay (maybe a little grouchy, too!) No signs of spotty Kyler or Evan so far!

We are glad we headed south for a little break!
