play

eli got a new playmobil gladiator set with two fighters and a tiger. we were fighting with them when lyla wanted to join in. eli said she should be the tiger. so everyone had their fighting figure...ready to go. eli and i started waring, slashing each others guy with our respective weapons, then lyla put the tiger up to my guy and said, "kiss." she's not so good at waring, but she's really good at being sweet.

snugging with her favorite baby...

i love our kitchen. it's my favorite room of the house...especially when it snows. the field and foothills look beautiful covered in white. this morning a few hundred geese landed in the field. they were flying around above and eating grass below. it was a cool site. the kids thought so, too.
