Instead of visiting friends ...

... we are trapped in the house.

Betsy felt ill this morning and consequently our plans with two different friends had to be canceled.

Are you stuck inside, too?

Here are a few online places to visit:

A page full of shape-book patterns. Ramona and I might make a mitten book.

Penguin activities

Trim a Jan Brett Christmas Tree

Trim a Jan Brett Gingerbread House

Go to FreeRice.com ... again ....

Visit the World of Peter Rabbit (thank, Aunt Lisa)

Visit Hoops and YoYo (thanks, Jennifer, for introducing us) ... you don't need to send an e-card ... they just make us laugh. I especially love this one. I especially love Coffee Jitters.

Best wishes to Betsy, I hope she feels better soon.

Thanks - I especially love the shape books and will have my first grader write a book on the bell page tomorrow! We're definitely feeling a bit home bound too - near zero degrees is just not too fun to navigate with 4 little ones...
