Homemade pizza-going loco stuck in house

Last night eagles played and frank wanted pizza to go with his football watching. I went to the grocery store at 12 so it was too early to grab a pie from riv. I usually buy their dough and make our own mini pies from it but I decided to save my $4 and make my own. Last time I did this I did not have bread flour and it was a bit chewy. I have since picked up bread flour so we tried it out. Using bobby flays Pizza dough recipe we had a dough that was tasty and not too chewy. It wasn't as sweet as Riv's but def good and super easy to make. Recipe on link.

I roll it out and kids spread sauce, add cheese and topping if choice. Devs is on left and was just about ready while Riley's was on right and needed a few more min (about 6-8 total) In the summer I do it on the grill w my stone. Love homemade pizza. It allows us all to customize and it's so easy. 

Devin had a buddy over for a playdate today so Riley did an alone craft. She received shrinky dinks from Santa and decided to break them out today. How awesome are shrinky dinks! They'll never get old. 

Who doesn't love a charm hair clip? She's such a peach and really loved sitting and choosing very methodically which ones to color. Big decisions here in the skinner house. 

Devin finally agreed to letting me cut his hair. He has always had short hair until this past spring he told me he wants to grow it out. I said sure bc I know I can always trim it. If it grew over his ears I trimmed it and he figured out how to whip his head to clear it from his eyes. He really does have great hair for a med/long hair cut but at his age it just was driving me nuts. When he gets older and wakes up and styles it I'm game but fit now I had to cut it. He can have a surfer cut again in a few years. I did have to bribe him. I offered $10 to put toward his savings for new Legos and he countered with $10 towards his savings and 30 min playing xbox 360. Solid counter so I agreed.

After- he looks so much more handsome And older? 

Snow day! The next Betty Crocker

With the frigid temps outside (currently -3*f) we will remain inside all day. So far we have made pumpkin muffins and homemade chicken nuggets. The kids never turn down my homemade nuggets and since we have nowhere to go i have been in the kitchen all morning. 

Dev lost two teeth yesterday and the tooth fairy left him $5 and a lego starwars planet with an xwing ship that he put together this morning during breakfast. He only has one lego kit left to put together from Christmas from the 16 he received. He had a ball putting them all together. I'm sad to see the pile gone ;) 

Riley is healing well from her incident on New Year's Day. The glue really is working well and hopefully the scar will be minimal if visible at all. She is not in pain and her only restrictions were no swimming or gymnastics for a week. Being 2cm and straight it has been a pretty easy recovery. 

I planned on going out today for dog food but both local stores are closed so I made it from scratch. Needless to say they loved the concoction I made. 

Dinner is in the crock pot and Christmas decorations are coming down. Laundry is in and kids are wrestling and perfecting their love/hate relationship. Pretty much couldn't get any better then that. I'm sensing a fire tonight and uncorking a new bottle of wine.
