Snow!
Originally uploaded by annamaren.We finally had some snow to talk about! Just a dusting really, but still, enough for K to be pleased! Everything looks so much prettier, and it's much easier to bear the burden of freezing weather when it's pretty outside! Of course most of this was melted by afternoon, but there is still some here and there!
St Nicholas day at Tia Justyn's home.

In the foreground of this telling photo you can see we were celebrating with some serious brunch- scones and eggnog!
L and Ava having some quite reading time in her room
Originally uploaded by justynrebecca.We celebrated St Nicholas day today with our dear friends. We brunched, we had stories and crafts and chocolate coins in our shoes- such fun!
L has lots of fun with his buddy Ava lately. This photo is of a sweet moment they were sharing together while all the older girls were crafting wildly in the dining room at Tia Justyn's.
I used to think that the age gap between these two was a bit larger than it is... because Ava plays so well with the older girls. Lately L has been quite smitten with Ava. I think they play so well together because they both have huge imaginations and both have older sisters who have helped them along in their imaginings. They are both sweet and rambunctious and funny with each other. I love it!
