Enjoying the high's between all the January lows!




It seems the days in January are short but the weeks are long! Even in the bitter cold we were lucky this year so far to have days when it was nice enough in the 30's and 40's to get outside and get out some well needed energy.  Xavier really wanted to go out and Owyn wanted to as soon as she realized that what Xavier was wanting.  So we all bundled up and went out Xavier wanted to make a snowman but the snow wasn't balling together for us to do that so Mom came up with the idea we could make a snow turtle so that's what we did.  Owyn just watched us holding a small shovel while Xavier and Mom scooped the snow into a big pile and then made the dome shape for the turtle body.  We added a Head and Tail and four legs.  It was getting dark when we were finishing up but the kids wanted to get some pictures so they climbed on top for a ride and then Xavier said it needed "Goodnight Kisses" So he gave the turtle those.  Then inside we went were I quickly through together dinner for to very hungry kids who wanted to eat right this minute.
