I'm not sure who designed this costume, but little Cadence turned into a rather abdominally muscular dark version of batman this past halloween. He was therefore the opposite of the bright colours recommended for safe trick or treating...so I made sure to stay close in my gigantic cow costume.
A first iteration of house-as-pumpkin. I expect it might grow more elaborate over the years.
This year it was a healthy snack--carrots for the reindeer, I think...I can't remember what Santa got.
Christmas was really nice this year, although we really did miss being with family. After a spontaneous brunch with the neighbours, we went out to a friend's on the lake for some curling, hockey, and skating on the lake then a quiet dinner. It was all really wonderful to be outside on such a special day.


After New Year's, we travelled to TO for a visit. Drew & Cadence went with Auntie Mer to a vegetarian restaurant, where they had fun making special effect pics. I decided not to post them...out of respect for the subjects.
Our family.
