Winter at the Farm

There is something Magical about Winter at 
Blessings Farm

we have the MOST wonderful sledding hills
see the cousins?
All of the Blessings are there
EVEN Little Man

Thankfully you can see Buddys very RED jacket at the top left
ONE of the hills zig zags diagonally down & across this photo
no,
that isn't all of it
it keeps going
I couldn't get the WHOLE of the sledding hill
into this shot

and as the evening sun begins to set
everyone was very hungry!
everyone was eager to have 
HOT Apple Cider
or wonderful Hot Cocoa

Dinner would be a big crock pot full of Chili
with ALL the fix ins
oodles of popcorn
and a fun night of 
Rummy 500
Blessings Farm House Rules
yep
Winter at the farm
is 
my FAVORITE place to be

busy happenings out of doors, Introducing Forrest and Peggy

lovely snow is falling!

and Opa is busy working on Forrest
have you met Forrest yet?
Forrest is what we have named our Tractor
(after Forrest Gump)
its a lawn tractor
with a SUPER cool blower attatchment!
We need new chains for it however..
and Opa is ON the job!

elsewhere on the property
I find Princess Sledding with Buddy
go go go!!!!

ah to hear the squeals of delight!

Victory! 
so fun
and no one fell OFF 

this is when I hear LOUD
sort of UGLY
rather angry IRRITATED sounds
coming from..
My BELOVED
Machine Man
and WHAT do I see?

Peggy our Pick UP truck
sliding down 
it seems it's too slick to get BACK on the driveway
some thinking will happen
some strategy
after someone 
relaxes,
Prays
and has a break
then, he will figure it ALL out with his BRILLIANCE
and Peggy will be JUST fine 
on the drive 
meanwhile 
 THESE
 munchkins 
are not disturbed in the 
LEAST 
isn't it wonderful?

so now you know who Forrest is
and Peggy too!

First sledding of the season!

Let it snow, Let it snow, LET IT SNOW!
yep.. 
they are AT it again! 
Crazy kids think the Blessings Farm drive is THE best ramp 
EVER
Buddy is waiting for HIS turn
and C.S. is the great PUSH
behind Princess and Little Man 
hold on tight
(hoping he doesn't freak out)

whooosh

I can't believe they made that bend
GOOD JOB steering Princess!

VICTORY

now grab that sled, and let us do it all again!
