Neverending snow

This snow will NEVER melt. We were able to enjoy one more day on Sunday before it started to warm and melt. The girls got in their first sled-ride. Hard to find a decent sledding hill in the plains, but this method worked just fine.

Cabin FEVER!!!

More pics of the Monday snowstorm. Nora works on a snowball.
Iris picks up the snow and drops it while repeatedly chanting her snow mantra "watchin the no" or something that sounded like that. (Videos to follow)
Winter wonderland!
"Hey Nora, don't close your eyes, I'm going to take a picture."
uh..........
This is from late October/early November. We went to Antioch Park to watch the ducks and collect pinecones.

Nora watches the falling snow with pure wonder.

Christmas with the Starrs

This Christmas was a magical time.
Santa followed us to Topeka where he delivered many wonderful gifts down the chimney to Iris and Nora Starr - who were very good this year. They received an easel, a Dora dollhouse, many dinosaurs (which were big this year), books, puzzles, and a giant cardboard playhouse. We then went home after the weekend and spent the following week cleaning the house and making room for the hoard of new toys we received.
We also spent a fun night at Jen and Phil Charlton's where the girls played with Quinlan and we visited with Aunt Linda and Uncle Gene. Gene took this amazing photos of the girls. It was such a blast.
Hope you and yours had a wonderful Holiday as well!!!
