Little gems...

I'm usually better about keeping the pictures off my camera but I've been lazy this month. I was pulling pictures off and noticed a few that haven't made it to the blog. This was New Year's Day at the sand dunes. Max and Juliet wanted to ride in the back of the Scout while I was much more comfortable driving the Tahoe which has doors and a heater. Very important features for me.

They look like they're having fun any way.

While I was making the quilts, Jack took a picture of Juliet . This was about the only good one. There's 15 more of his bowl of frosted shredded wheat and super close-ups of his pants. Why that was so important at the time, I'll never know.

And lastly, Jack and Juliet were playing some sort of winter expedition game and needed warms hats and scarves. (Juliet decided a lei was close enough to a scarf.) Notice Jack's red fingernails. As I was finishing the quilts, he and Juliet decided to paint their fingers and toes by themselves. I was so close to being done that I just let them keep doing it.

Both hats and the scarf Jack is wearing were both knitted by my SIL Rachel! She does amazing things with yarn.
