winter games.....


It would seem that we have a little break in the cold.... it's in the 20's today and everyone was in the mood to get out and do something fun. Kas, Nate and Reagan packed up and came to the farm.... Reagan seemed so happy to see "Baby and Papa!!!"
And it took him all of a few seconds to get his scootie moving and figure out the lay of the house. One thing with an "open concept".. there is a lot of room to move around in. When Abbie lived here, she had a little red trike that she could zip around so fast in.....
The other thing that Reagan figured out... how nicely he could "touch" things... being "taller" has many advantages!!!!
Rearranging all the photos on the frig (and dropping a couple on the floor) was great fun....
"what, Baby??? no, I'm not getting into anything that I shouldn't!!!"
We had a very nice visit while we waited... and before too long, just the sound that we were waiting for!!!!!!
Dave, Deb and Sean all arrived, bringing the sleds back to the farm once again.... it's snow mobile day!!!!
First off, a nice little ride for Reagan, going around the pasture.....

Then Kass took a little turn on her own......
while Reagan got a chance to creep around the snow waiting for Mommy to come back. 
The "boys" had planned to run the sleds over to the lake, so the "gals" planned on doing some snow shoeing. My friend, Kathleen came to join us....
And we followed the paths that the sleds had made out threw the woods. It was such a pretty day, and as I said, it actually felt "warm"... so good to be out in the fresh air.....
We had a great time, and the paths were nice and easy to hike across....
Nate and Banjo.....
I forget how much land we have here on the farm..... 
Kass was amazing... she did all that snow shoeing with little Reagan strapped to her. (and she kept right up with us!!!)
After a little bit we met up with the boys and the sleds.... oh Dave... (showing off) stuck his sled pretty good in the puckies!!!!
Took the boys some tugging and pulling to get him out of this one!!!!












Everyone came back to the house after our outings... we had good foods waiting for us, and it was just a grand time to be all together and enjoying the winter weather (for a change). Thinking there's about a month to go, and then we can begin to think spring. But in the meantime, I hope to get back out on those shoes....
