Little coloring book bag with a place to put crayons. I got it at a flea market, and people at the orthodontist office really liked it. It does come in quite handy when I have to bring my daughter along to waiting rooms. I can stick my own magazines in there too.

My dog likes to dig at rocks. Here, she is making a ditch through the snow while digging at a somewhat large rock. Which explains the migrating rocks the mower finds first thing in the spring. You really don't expect a big rock to suddenly appear in the middle of nowhere over the winter.

Long exposure of my husband plowing the driveway. I had fun making this, next time I'm going to try to figure out a way to take a longer amount of time. This was only about a tenth of the time he was out there. So since I almost kinda sorta want it to snow more, that means we won't get any more, right?

Some trim I had used for making a sack for Santa for a Christmas card picture a few years ago.

This came along to move the large amounts of snow that kept drifting across the road near our driveway. He just lifted it further from the road. Due to the lay of the land, we get very bad drifts there, and usually there's 3-4 times as much snow piled there than 500 feet up the road.

Nice to see my tax dollars at work. I suppose.

We got an after-Christmas sale pot + seeds for a spruce tree. Within hours of planting it, my daughter was asking if it had grown yet. It's finally growing now!

We saw a rainbow on New Years Day. Hopefully that's a good sign!
