While trying hard to keep me out of the cold this year, I've been crafty. After stringing mini lights in Ali's fairy garden, we agreed they needed a shelter for winter. I had an idea to use modelling clay and stones to make them stone huts. Off to the dollar store we go, then home we come.

| Unfortunately, they didn't dry right and cracked. As they dried that night the stones kept falling off one by one. clank, clank, clank....as we slept. |

| Finally ready to go outside. Alexiss picked this off of her hat and handed it to me with the instruction, "Mom, don't throw this out, it's treasure, okay?" |
 |
| Only one snowy blustery day so far this year. Alexiss helped shovel. Most of the snow has melted. What a difference from two years ago, our back yard was full by December. |
 |
| We decided to try the Santa Claus parade this year in Strathmore. It was so much fun! Alexiss's favorite float was the Grinch. Instead of tossing candy like some of the floats, he tossed pieces of broccoli! These are our friends, the Wilsons. |
