Well, hello snow!

There you are.

We have seen much of you, Jack Frost.

So glad you stopped by.

February Adventures

We have enjoyed sledding with Bella and Sophie at Ya-Ya's house

 And we enjoyed an afternoon of ice fishing on the lake, thanks to the generosity of fellow fisherman, who drilled our hole.

Bribed with hot chocolate and snacks

 There was lots of wrestling and climbing

but no fish.

Snow castle!

In spite of the lack of snowfall, we managed to scrape enough snow off of our crust to build a tiny "castle".
Really, I was just absolutely stir crazy and needed an excuse to keep the boys outside.  And it successfully occupied all of us for a few hours.

Happy Birthday Brody

What a miraculous gift you were, dear Brody.   Arriving 7 weeks early, smiling moments after birth, you are our miracle.  Your journey has been amazing, full of surprise and wonder through each year.

 

my how you've grown!

Happy 6th Birthday, love.

Birthday boys

Brody and Logan celebrated their birthdays with their friends at our house this year.  

Transformers was the obvious choice.

My  poor attempt at the symbols.

Brody asked to have the Deceptacon Symbol on his cake

And Logan was happy to be an Autobot.

Snow finally

We had a nice 6 inches of snowfall last night - the fluffy kind, so cold it's like zillions of ice crystals.
