Inversion...

 In Utah, sometimes we get something called an inversion, which is where somehow a bunch of pollution gets trapped in the city.  If you go up in the mountains, I hear the air is clear, but down low, the air is really gross.  A couple weeks ago the inversion was SO BAD.  It looked like there was fog everywhere but really it was the pollution.  We couldn't even see the mountains from our house.  It was super bad.  So we stayed inside most of the time during that week.  So here are a few things we did while we were stuck inside. 

 We did a lot of sticker books.  I looked up and saw Rob looking like this...and I couldn't stop laughing.  I thought it was hilarious.  I still do.  ha ha.

 I decided to try something that I saw online somewhere.  I got a bucket of snow from outside and colored some water for them to paint with in the snow.  

 They loved it!

 It kept them occupied for a good 30 minutes.  We will be doing this one again.  But our snow is mostly gone now, so we might have to wait until next year.

 Meanwhile, Riley ate some snow. I tried to dig down under a little bit so it wasn't so dirty. 

Then I had to run to the store to pick something up.  This is how Riley was dressed and at least 2 people called her a boy.  hah!  I don't get offended at all when this happens, I just think it is hilarious that someone would guess that she was a boy when she is wearing a pink and red dress, and sucking on a purple pacifier.  But oh well.  It just makes me chuckle.  :)
