Sled Season



It's sled season! No more carrying Anneka to the bus stop! But now we have to figure out how to fit the sled onto the micro-buses (vans). Sometimes it's a bit of a trick. It has snowed here a lot the past few days! And when it snowed, it was pretty warm (up to 25F!!). Now it's back down below zero. With wind. But the snow is still pretty.


When I am going to a store, I don't want to take the sled with me because there's nowhere to put it. Leif was nice to walk Anneka and me to the bus stop yesterday. It felt SO COLD! It was only -1F, but the wind made it feel so much colder!! As you can see, Anneka has no skin showing, and Leif is wincing with the cold. Anneka didn't like the cold (but who does??). On the bus, she was happy again. Once we were about one stop away from our destination, I told her that we'd be getting off soon. She grabbed her scarf and busily began wrapping it around her face and head to prepare. She's no dummy!


This evening we painted with watercolors. Anneka doesn't really get into too many crafts yet, but she does like to paint.
