Snow Camel

How cool are our neighbors!? They don't just build a snowman or snow fort - which are cool, don't get me wrong... But THIS. This is a work of art. And, it will be there for a while too. Current forecast has my best guess at a week and a half. Brrr.

Egg Nog is Not a Vegetable

Last night, as I was fixing dinner, I asked Alex what fruit or veggie he wanted and he told me, "egg nog".


I had to inform him that wasn't a fruit or a vegetable... He tried to reason with me "But it IS very special."


We had green beans. Usually one of his favorites, that is, when they're not a stark alternative to egg nog.



In the end, he didn't eat his green beans, so, he didn't get any egg nog either!! It's rough being 3.

A-l-e-x

Alex wrote his name on his chalkboard and then asked me to take a
picture of him with it! He's so very proud of his accomplishment -
and so are we!
