Michael can be found playing outside in the freezing weather, watching reruns of The Middle, or clearing off the driveway so Steven and I don't slide into our home or mailbox on our way back from work.

Recently Steven realized our hot water heater was becoming less efficient and running out of its ten-year life, so he did a lot of research on replacements and we are now the proud owners (well, Steven is proud) of a hybrid hot water heater. Notice the beautiful lattice work Steven did on our door to create airflow.
I am certain Zoe and Niki love the snow days, too, because they either lay with us or roam our home and get into whatever trouble they see fit, as opposed to spending their time in the laundry room, protecting our clothing.
