Homemade Graham Crackers are Yummy

 

Christmas in January!

Poor Nana was really sick over the holidays, so we just finally caught up with them to exchange our Christmas gifts. The kids were delighted to see Nana and Grampy and delighted at the chance to open some more presents!!!

 

 

 

 

little bit of snow

Virginia has been missing out on all the big snows, but we did have a bit of snow in January - enough for little snowman making, snow tasting and a bit of sledding.

 

 

 

 

This is how we do it

A few weeks ago, I took both the girls (separately!) ice skating for the first time! With Ada, i learned pretty quickly that just three is not a good age for ice skating (she was slipping all over the place)...so I was quite thankful when they brought out the buckets for inexperienced skaters. And so was Ada - especially when she discovered how fun it was to ride sitting balanced on top of the bucket while I pushed her around the rink! Josie had a better experience and progressed from bucket to side of the rink to skating hand and hand with me.
