Cousin L turned 1 recently and we were all at Grandpa and Grandma L’s to celebrate it. The winter has blown some big drifts onto the yard and L, K, and cousin T spent some time enjoying them.
Grandpa traded off the snowmobile on a 4-wheeler, so of course everyone had to enjoy it. K and L both took a number of rounds on Uncle B and Uncle M’s modified GT Racer. There’s too much snow to go off the beaten path, but there are enough paths to make for an enjoyable time.
Uncle B and Grandpa also hitched the horses to the sleigh. The sleigh isn’t big enough for everyone, so some have to ride in the calf-sled pulled behind it. It was the afternoon of the second day and so everyone was operating on less than a full night’s sleep and had a really hard time staying awake.
Grandma F didn’t accompany Grandpa F on his annual mission trip to Mexico this year. We had the pleasure of hosting her for a few days. She brought her rainbow-bracelet loom with her and it was a hit. L and K are very proud of their bracelets and are always asking to make more.
