Boxing Day Skating

On Boxing Day, Grandpa cleared off the snow on one of the dugout ponds so we could all go skating.


Everyone helps out with shovels


Daymond helps, too.


Angil arrives in a modified toboggan


I got a video camera for Christmas and made this movie about Daymond's first skating experience.

Gingerbread House

Auntie Erika invited us over for a gingerbread house making party. She did an AMAZING job making the pieces from scratch.
Daymond had a blast putting the candy on the house.


Update: December 30, Mmmmmmm it was tasty!!

Daymond's Drawings

Daymond has started to draw pictures. His favorite thing to draw is a car. I'm truly impressed that the drawings actually look like a car (okay you have to use some imagination)


The blobs are a door and window. As you can see, the door has a handle.


Daymond informed me that this was a picture of my van on the grass


This picture was drawn a few days later and you can see how it has evolved into a dome-like car not unlike the Little Tykes Cozy coupe that Daymond pines for when we go to friends' houses who have them. See below.



This is a car on a road, according to Daymond.
