Suzuki, Sickness, and Snow

The Redford family has managed to stay very busy the last few weeks before everything came to a screeching halt with respiratory illnesses and the Blizzard of 2011! Thankfully our sickness were nothing to serious, just long in duration and annoying! I am going into my 3rd week of not feeling great - so I think I may head to our little clinic to see if I have a sinus infection!?
After Isabelle felt better, she was blessed to participate in a Suzuki Strings day in a neighboring school district. She enjoyed being able to be with other students who play the violin. She just began playing herself in October of last year - her teacher is a Suzuki teacher and thinks Isabelle is doing SO well! Isabelle doesn't know anyone else who plays violin, so this was a great experience to see other kids who are learning and playing the songs she's been working on too! She is right in the middle of this photo!
The Blizzard in full force!

There were times we could barely see the trees in our backyard.

We probably had 3-4 inches of snow blow in our covered deck!
Today, while waiting for the Superbowl to start, Kevin and the kids spent about 4 hours out playing in the snow - well actually building a long "sled run" complete with jumps and turns! They had so much fun! I tried to get some photos, but Isabelle had to use my snow gloves, so my fingers got cold fast. I didn't last very long out with them!
These two make me smile!
