Well, the holiday season is drawing to a close. In a few days we’ll be tackling the new security measures put in place at the airport after the latest attempted bombing. Until then, we’ll try to get in a few more days of Manitoba cold weather. Here K is enjoying the company of Aunt I, Aunt I’s friend from China, P, and cousin C. Cousin C has two months on K, but it’s already obvious that K has grown several inches since she was born.
One of L’s favorite Christmas gifts came from Aunt C, who made him his very own train engineer’s hat. It fit him perfectly, and he spent the first 20 minutes after unwrapping the hat running around, pretending that he was driving a train.
There hasn’t been any shortage of horse-and-sleigh rides this Christmas. Here we are hooking up Uncle B’s prize team of Belgians, Ernie and Bert.
It stormed a few days and left some nice, hard drifts. We spent an hour pretending we were kids and built a snow fort.
That fort looks great – that would be so much fun!! I chuckled at the horses names – Ernie & Bert, heh heh. 🙂 Hope the airport wasn’t too awful (is that too much to hope?).
