Oh, What do you do in the Wintertime?

Get your face painted at the local Thomas the Train store (imagine hundreds of little boys running around)


Sit in a laundry basket and eat a whole carrot while we wait for the oven repairman to come


Chase around the house with your Dad who tries to get you to talk on the phone to your relatives


Go to the Tree Lighting Ceremony at the Ohio Statehouse and get scared when they fire a real cannon



Play in the rice table and bury your cars


Gather all your most treasured belongings (baseball/tennis balls, Cars blanket, toy pot, Thomas trains) and push them around the house in your shopping cart in preparation for life as a bagperson

Hunt for rocks in the snow with your dad and have the all-important job of lantern holder (Andy needed rocks for an object lesson in Primary)

Get put to work to earn your keep


Lay down and ask for a foot massage from your grandma (he gets this from Andy).

Ben is such a cutie! It is great to see pictures of your family! Ben and Dallin seem so similar- we should be neighbors again and they can hang out. Any plans on coming back to AZ? Did I mention we don't have any snow on the ground? :)

Favorite picture: Ben running from Andy because he doesn't want to talk on the phone. I'm sure it's me on the line. Why does that baby snub me? Oh to be two and already have your own entourage. I just want him to schedule me into his oh so important day, somewhere between studying his train pamphlet and learning to say cholo. Is that too much to ask?

PS I love that baby!

Why have I not done that rice in a tupperware yet? That is such a good idea!!

I smiled when I saw the state house... some things never change. I miss you, Nollie. :)
