It's been cold and snowy these first couple weeks of January. The chickens, ducks, rabbits, and often a cat or two have been enjoying the relatively warmer environs of the high tunnel.
The kids are happily enjoying their front yard sledding hill again.
It still makes so nervous whenever they are out there-- busy road and no fence up yet. My beautiful eucalyptus, rose bush, young lilac bush.
The cotton candy maker was came out of hiding for a week or so and all the kids practiced spinning sugar into fluff.
We made a spur of the moment trip to visit our old friends the S family in Williamsburg.
We stayed 5 days and the kids had a blast playing together. We took a break from schooling and were spoiled with lots of goodies and chatting. I helped my friend S plan her garden and seasonal bed rotation for this year. We made matching farm aprons and recovered a couple of her kitchen chairs.
And we celebrated Miss L's birthday together. She had a big Cafe Rio dinner when we got home, as well.
