Mittens for Sam

I finished a quick pair of mittens for Sam.  I'm wondering if he will actually wear them.  What I'm envisioning is a reaction similar to the one from A Christmas Story when the kid got a  pink bunny outfit from his grandmother.

I had fun knitting them for him.

Who Needs A Sled?

Yesterday we had a great time playing on the little hill next to our house.  The snow had a thin layer of ice on it so the kids were able to do some "butt sledding" and belly flopping.

When the girls get older they will realize how small the hill is, and be bored with it.  But now it's the perfect sledding hill
