Climbing trees in snowsuits on a warmish winter day.

Brrrr.... On a recent 2 hour delay for snow Abby and Nate played outside while Mommy stayed warm inside and prepared cocoa for the chilly kiddos. Nate continues to rock the rainbow snowsuit. Unfortunately though this may be its final season for our family. Who is up next???

We have been slow to keep the blog up to date in 2015.... Not too much excitement here. Though we did make cool catapults the other day out of popsicle sticks and rubber bands. Mini marshmallows are our cannon balls. Watch out world!
