2 days after Christmas...

It's 2 days after Christmas, hard to believe it's come and gone so fast for another year! Luke and Nolan were over today (and tomorrow) because their regular day home was not open today and Laurie had to work. Here are some pics of the day.... At lunch time they BOTH wanted to sit right beside Becca, so I had to move over to the other side of the table :-) That's ok, it gave me a chance to get some cute photos of them with Sweetie.

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas....

I set up our Christmas tree and decorations last week....and now I feel more like Christmas is not that far away... I still think it will sneak up on us faster than expected though. The first collage is some winter pictures I took about 2 weeks ago.

Our front yard this morning....

This is what Calvin discovered in our front yard this morning. Some ptarmigans camaflouged in the snow. I had seen these footprints in our yard a few days earlier, and assumed it was some cat that had wandered through our yard. By the look of the trail these ptarmigans left behind, it looks like it was them and they were back for a visit.
On another note, the northern lights were amazing last night!!! I tried to take some pictures but did not suceed, I don't have the proper camera for that...
Edited to say: I added one picture that I tried to take last night of the Aurora Borealis....Dave & Michelle , I wish I had your camera for this... and a tripod, you need really long exposures to take pictures of the northern lights.

Good night, Sweetie & Pooh

Becky got this glow in the dark Winnie the Pooh from Santa yesterday at the respite Christmas party. It plays music and the face lights up when you squeeze him. Very fitting for her, since her bedroom has lots of Winnie the Pooh stuff already.


Eeyore...then and now.

Here is a picture of our little Sweetie as Eeyore from 1 year ago....and now. What a difference a year makes!
