These are all pictures I took last week of the girls playing in the snow. The snow is gone from all the sunny spots now, but still lingering in the shade.
Josie making a snow angel with an icicle in her hand: Eating the Snow: Peeking at us through the milk door: Playing with Ruthie through the milk door:
Mittens, mittens, mittens at our house. And some fun recycled/repurposed games like jacks with wool bouncy balls. Don't tell the girls about the games, though, because I've got a feeling they might see one soon enough. Your crafts and artwork are beautiful. When our overused, undersupported coat hooks gave way today, Nora immediately commented: "We could use a new coatrack like the girls have!" I think I'll put Sam on the job.
I've been working a lot with fabric strips lately, cutting things into long layers...for the making of christmas gifts. My crochet hook has been out quite a bit as well but again, i can't exactly tell you what for : )
i just realized i left the above comment in the wrong spot, i was really replying to your question about crafting... But I love the snow pictures, particularly the one of josie eating it, oh and the one where she is peeking through the door! and anna has a beautiful smile!
How fun to play in the snow! We got our first dusting last Friday, and Jack was dying to go home and play in it, so finally Trace took both kids home. I wish I could have been there to see the fun (although it was nice to get some uninterrupted work done:) ), because they went sledding in the little bit of slush in the driveway. They were so excited! Happy Thanksgiving! I'm thinking of you all!
The ringleader of chaos and fun, master of the domestic arts, mother to three beautiful, laughing girls and one wonderful husband, reveler in all things minute and daily.
Husband, father, student of civil engineering, the master gardener and bread baker in the house and loves when he gets to go for a good, hard bike ride.
Anna 10-11-05
Six year old lover of all the delightful details of life. Tree climber, bike rider, rock climber, gardener, Mama snuggler, artist, reader, best friend to her sisters, a kindhearted compassionate girl who knows herself and stands secure and confident in who she is with her feet planted strongly in the natural world around her.
Josie 3-6-07
Five years old, full of spunk, adventure and daring. She loves to snuggle, gives hugs freely and is probably the most social of the three. She is always thinking about those around her and if you need a babysitter she will follow your little one around untiringly and keep them out of trouble. She loves riding her scooter, swinging high, any art project, and is always ready to lend a helping hand. She won't be left behind if you are going out the door.
Ruthie 11-29-08
The cutest, smiliest, most independent 3 year old around, has mastered climbing and is trying to learn to ride her two wheel bike so she can ride 'all by herself' to pick up her sisters at school. She laughs easily, especially at the antics of her silly sisters. Favorite pasttimes are playing in the hammock and building with blocks and lincoln logs.
