Looking for Treasure in Sand and Snow


In the afternoon we pulled out some of the activities the kids got for Christmas. They were thrilled to be digging out their various treasures; Aria a treasure box filled with snakes, Ben a game about dinosaurs with five figures and Elias a pirate game with coins and skulls. It was very very messy and I must admit feeling quite brave pulling it out. THe kids were great helpers, Ben wiped all the chairs and table down while ELias wiped Aria up. Many hands...


















The kids are often eager to go in the backyard even before having had breakfast. This morning was no different except that there was snow, which made the call to be outdoors even greater! By 9 am Ben had rolled a snowman (probably the last of the season...let's hope anyway lol!). While decorating it with stones and sticks it fell apart which was very upsetting for Ben so Elias created him a small baby snowman- brothers are great.
