Day 21: What happened to Thomas?

Another snow day! Usually I have mixed feelings about snow days since a break from school in the winter usually means working further into the summer. Today, however, I welcome it since it means I don't have to take another day off for my sick boys. 

As we anticipate the impending snow this morning I thought it would be fun to do something I pinned but never actually tired. So I got on Pinterest and found this "foam dough" recipe. It's just equal parts shaving cream and corn starch. Mix it together until you have a moldable consistency. I don't think I added quite as much shaving cream as I should have but it turned in to a really great "snow!" It is just flaky enough to look like snow but molds enough to play with. D kept covering Thomas with the "snow" saying, "Oh no, what happened to Thomas?" And I made a snowman. :)
