Snow, Snow, Snow

 

My mom sent this picture of all these snowmen she made. 

Right before it was too late, I had snagged some remaining herbs and a flower to flat dry. 

A stinky little guy made his way to our second floor balcony to eat the bird seed. I shot him several times with a BB gun until he was finally sufficiently scared away. I didn't those things were so tough. 

Mainly January

A few warm days at the beginning of the month before the deep freeze and snow came. 

This is actually New Year's Eve when Micah turned two.

A lone walk at the creek.

Another creek with Jacob and the kids. 

There's nothing like a big pan of cinnamon rolls.

A bunch of calendar picture cards.

Eggs and grits.

Christmas

Christmas Day was very warm, reaching the high 60's. It was lovely. I sure miss those days now that January has turned so cold.

We had pancakes for breakfast. I didn't want to make pasca and risk not liking it in the future. 

Then we went outside to enjoy the beauty. 

I thought it was so cute how Jacob and Micah were matching. 

Then we climbed trees. 

We had hamburgers for dinner. 

It was a nice Christmas.

St Nicholas Day (The Day the Sickness Hit)

I thought I was just tired from staying up late decorating the house, but it turns out that was the day the baby sickness hit. The rest of December I spent half the time laying on the couch feeling miserable.
