A couple of weeks ago we bought the boys a little cheap sled at Target. Thank goodness we didn't spend much money on it because, as much as they love the snow, neither of them really like riding on the sled. We are all hoping for one more big snow storm so we can make another snowman before winter is over.

He seemed to enjoy it at first, but he quickly changed his mind. |

Two weekends ago we took the boys to Winterfest, where they had a huge hill to sled down. We thought they would like this better than being pulled around the yard. We were wrong. Paul took both boys down the hill once, which they were not happy about.

I was only able to get a few pictures of Payson sledding down the hill. |

Believe it or not, all of that snow is a layer of frozen ice over a river. |

At least they like the mascot. |

Super cute. |
On of the projects the boys recently made at playgroup was a bird feeder. The pine cone feeders have peanut butter and Crisco on them. We hung them up right outside our living room windows. For the first week or so, I didn't see any birds interested in them at all. Then I noticed that Beckett's feeder disappeared and I assume a squirrel took it. Finally, I started seeing the same bird come by a few times a day to get a snack. The boys get so excited every time they see the bird. He just the prettiest little bird!
