Brrr

feels like winter now + we have snow!  My aunt gave us two snowball makers, which work well + are really great.  

When the sun shines and the skies are blue, it feels so uplifting to me!  I need sunglasses, because when the sun reflects off the snow, it's really bright.  We've begun chopping the wood for next winter.  It really needs to "season," dry out because it's too "green."  We only use wood to heat our house right now.

We had a 5 foot icicle from our eaves!  The boys brought it in the house and we put in the bathtub. My sister came from Canada to visit!  The kids had a great time together.
