Winter Bird Watching
Logan and I have a winter bird watching tradition. I was delighted when he reminded me of this tradition this morning when he came downstairs. We quickly cleaned up the truck so the windows sparkled and fitted the back with chairs, spotting scope, snacks and binoculars and headed to our favorite local lake. It was a very chilly morning so we did all of our bird watching from inside the truck and let me tell you, this is the way to winter bird watch!
We saw lots of hooded mergansers, mallards, ring-billed gulls, and a few bufflehead ducks. We also enjoyed watching a mockingbird chase many many birds away from "his" berry bush! He was very busy and those hungry little birds just kept coming back over and over again.
Our cozy setup!
I have also been doing a feeder watch here at home. The best place to watch my feeders in from my kitchen sink. This is how Logan found me this morning! : )

Christmas 2015
We will have to make do with my cell phone photos as I had misplaced my camera shortly before Christmas.
Family photo... with Casey's best side! :)
Funny how she still likes the bag that the gift came in! :)
Cold but not snow so we were able to try out the scooters!
At grandma's we enjoyed some Christmas horse back riding! : )
We also got all 4 generations of men together for a family photo. Can you see the resemblance in these father and sons? (and check out how tall Logan is!... almost as tall as Great Grandpa!)

A Little Makeup Fun
The Gremlins were experimenting with makeup... I just had to get a photo of the finished look! I'm not sure what they were aiming for, but the end product seems more fitting for Halloween than Christmas. ; )
I see a resemblance between these beautiful girls and the Cheshire Cat from Alice in Wonderland!
