Mary hanging out at the MSI today~

Christmas Cookie

I will honor Christmas in my heart, and try to keep it all the year. ~Charles Dickens

Spirit of the Season

We finally got our Christmas Tree up today. Mary had a blast! She is such a goofy hamball sometimes~
And of course, after all that hard work, Sam and Mary needed an apple to make it to bed~

Fine Art

While trying to get some school work done today, I set Mary up in front of the easel for the first time. It's twice her size!
But she really liked it~

And she was pretty darn pleased with her work~

You can barely see it, but she pretty much stuck with only green and yellow~

Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once we grow up. ~Pablo Picasso

"A little Snow was here and there..."

Mary thinks she's a big kid now, right in the midle of her brothers' and their friends' snowball fight~
She loves being in the snow~

Snow Bunny

We had our first snow here today - and Mary is finally old enough to really appreciate it. She loved it!
