Winter Fun

Evangeline's become a master potholder weaver.  She made 3 potholders they day we opened up the kit she got for Christmas.  She was so proud of her accomplishment.  As she held a potholder up to admire it she said, "I don't even want to use if for potholding. I just want to hug it."
 
It's been such a mild winter so far.  We filled up the bird feeders last week.  There are so many birds that visit our yard.  I've seen many cardinals, blue jays, and woodpeckers.  We've also had lots of deer and wild turkeys.  
 
It's snowed a little bit.  Not much, but there was enough on the ground to try out the new snow gear.  Jed didn't seem to enjoy himself.  At one point he fell and got little snow under his mitten.  He was so mad.
 
My little artist draws pictures of the snowy scenes we wish for....
 
My friend Lesley was in town for a brief visit.  I got to meet her baby, Madisyn, for the first time.  It would have been nice to get all the kids in a picture, but unfortunately Lesley's mom was rocking Madisyn to sleep when we thought about it.  Evangeline took this picture for us, so Jed was the only child to make the picture....we'll try again next time.
