Last weekend, the Whites came up for sugaring.
Friday afternoon was gorgeous for snowfort building.
Working on their fortifications
A tired girl
Heading out to feed cows
Dad wandering around in his short sleeved shirt in the snow
The evaporator tenders
Smoke going up the hatch
Penny worn out by all the exuberant children
We had some friends from Canada for lunch and then we made sugar snow. We being the guys. I just took pictures.
All that amber goodness!
Abilene was a fan
It was sticky stuff!
Then a hotly contested game of authors happened in the living room.
There was a lot of passion and competition.
Especially from this kid!
Lincoln made himself a sword in case things got out of hand.
But they calmed down.
Until Marilyn started being nefarious and taking Lily's cards that is...
Coloring after supper
On Sunday, we did a quick, cold, family picture.
It was a cloudy day, but all the snow made it bright, so we are squinting AND shivering.
The kids were grumpy about the situation for some reason.
But they survived.
Hoyt wanted to be in a picture.
Running back inside
Poor lilies.
We had a lovely, springy week or two in February and the lilies popped up looking for action. Snow and cold was not the action they were hoping for.

A new ticket to ride board! The Wild West. It was pretty fun. A few twists that I did not master the first go around, but I am feeling pretty confident about making a second attempt!
Silly-kins!
Love that Rilla girl!

Well, I love you guys and your cute, squinty-ness! I second Julie in that Orianna is getting TALL. Wowie! Looks like an overall fun weekend!
The family picture is great as the kids seemed to hide their grumpiness pretty well! :) I see that Justin is back into facial hair!
I have always wondered what sugar snow was. Thanks for the pictures on that!
