About to head out sledding!

All ready for the cold and the first real snow! Out we go!

Forging a path in the snow

This was all rain until 35 minutes ago. Good thing I have Asher around to help me!

Asher's Town

We are taking advantage of another 55 degree day by building a town with our "outside blocks". Our buildings include "school", "high school", "playground", houses, and "where the dads work".

Making ornaments

This morning we got out the glittler, pouf balls, googly eyes, paint, feathers, "sparklies" (like confetti), glue, and more. It's a good day at our house when we start out like this!

He says it says " monster life". I'm not sure what it means, but it sure is lovely!

He's much better today after waking up sick in the middle of the night yesterday (ew). Joel has so far not gotten sick. We will keep the just-in-case buckets in the car.

Making ornaments, Advent day 2

Remember these suncatchers? I remember making them as a kid. I found some polar bear ones for ornaments at Michael's. This is our activity for day two on our advent calendar. (Yesterday we played at Sharon Woods and went to their "How Animals Survive the Cold" program - very fun!)

The suncatchers are in the oven now!

First day success!

He's playing, so I can't get a picture of Asher, but he told me every detail of his first day, and he loved it! He made a new friend named Benjamin, played on the playground, painted with yellow paint, and ate a "gingerman cookie" for snack.

Asher's first day of school!

He is so proud!
