Playing in the SNOW!!

We were so excited to receive some snow and be able to take Justus out to play in it for his first time!  Although most of it had melted by the time we went out, there still was enough for some fun sledding.
Justus likes to eat snow
Fun!

Sledding!

In action
Justus had his very own pair of Carhartt coveralls to wear in the snow
Isn't it fun finding name brand stuff at resale shops! :)

Icicles!!!

We love icicles!  They are always such a pretty part of winter.


We found these ones to be extra special as they reflected the vivid colors of our shop's open sign.

Justus wears Daddy's Gloves

After playing with Daddy's gloves for a while, Justus decided that he needed to wear them.  After putting one on, he had a little help from Mommy with the other. :)

The Toy Box

When Justus decided the toys were too hard to reach, he climbed right into the toy box and played there!

Getting out after some fun playing!

To Boldly Go. . . .

. . . where no man has gone before!

Daddy and Justus love exploring together. . . today Daddy is explaining the operations of a Starfleet communicator.  They both have one their own size! (Justus' is a Christmas tree ornament, but a working model!)

Mommy has one too!

John Deere Day at the Dealership

What could be better than a night out, with a free meal at the John Deere Dealership!

We enjoyed good food and lots of Green.
Justus even got to sit in Uncle Jim's office!

On Sale It Is, Eat It Will We

We have always been curious about the marshmallow suckers sold in Walmart around holidays.  But, since they are way too expensive for a marshmallow sucker, we have never tried one.  There are always so many left over after the holidays are over- I don't think they sell very well. :)  Well, this year when Christmas stuff went on sale 75% off, we decided to fork up 25 cents and give a Yoda sucker a try.

About to be eaten

All in all, it wasn't that bad, but we now know why there are so many suckers left over! :)

Annual Young Rabbit Meal

Phil, Donna, and Kay traversed to Bill and Bonnie's house for the annual Young/Cox rabbit meal.
  

We delighted in our rabbit delicatessen and also enjoyed the wonderful fellowship.
