Christmas pictures...Round 2

They wouldn't even sit together.
Or sit up straight.
Or smile.
Or stay awake.
LOL!

Possible Christmas photos? I don't think so.

What a great snow storm for sliding!

So much snow.
Fun, Fun, Fun!
Very cold

Santa brought some great gifts to our home.

Bridget's absolute favorite is her reindeer, so softy and cuddly.

...and her new fairy chair.

Patrick's favorite is a toss up between his huge Matchbox firetruck,
and his Lego truck set...and his remote control tractor.

Late autumn afternoon
Trotsky's eyes take on
an otherworldly glow

Thanksgiving Snapshot

The meal was great. The company was excellent. Sadly, I took only a few pictures just before our last guests left. Too few and too late, but better than none.

Bridget dressed for a rainy, cold, school day.
She missed the walk after dinner, but it was dark out. At least she put on a little fashion show.

While Bridget naps peacefully, inside.....

Bundled up warmly, Patrick is safe from the cold wind.

Take a quiz and feed hungry people: http://www.freerice.com

This is off my topic, but a worthy filler since I'm having camera issues. Click on the picture on the right, choose your subject, test your knowledge and feed someone.

FreeRice is partnered with the Berkman Center for Internet & Society at Harvard University. The Berkman Center is a network of faculty, students, fellows and members of an extended community who “envision a growing opportunity to use Internet technologies to improve the ways that we teach, learn, and make information accessible to citizens around the world.”

FreeRice is also partnered with the United Nations World Food Program (WFP). WFP distributes all of the rice that you donate to help fight hunger. As the world’s largest food aid agency, WFP works closely with many other organizations in over 75 countries. In addition to providing food, WFP helps hungry people to become self-reliant so that they escape hunger for good. Wherever possible, WFP buys food locally to support local farmers and the local community.
