Winter Solstice

The days start getting longer now!

Alright I know it has been a while, 2 months I guess but I'm here and I am updating. Winter has set in and we are enjoying the snow. Sailey doesn't last a long time outside when it is like this but Alec is really getting into it.
Here she is sitting on the heater warming up after some time outside. We had a really cold November with temps in the single digits and below for about 3 weeks. Then December came and it started snowing. This is what the road to town looked like one morning when we had to go.Now that we are at the winter solstice I can say that we are really enjoying hauling water in the winter and going to the outhouse when it is 10 degrees out. Actually it is amazing at how well the kids do, they don't seem to mind at all. Sailey even wants to go by herself now.
Alec and Sailey are getting into the christmas spirit, well at least the gift part, and are having a hard time waiting for the big day. We are busy putting the finishing touches on this years DVD and can tell ya that it won't be there before christmas. With that I must go. Happy Solstice.
