An Icy Christmas

Quick recap - one inch of ice in our area on Christmas morning and no power. Not to worry, though, we had a great time with our kerosene heater warming us to a toasty 75 degrees.
Mom laid out all of our Christmas goodies and here are the girls enjoying them. MF woke up with an upset stomach and a quite broken out bottom, hence sitting on the pillow. :) Bless her little heart!
This boy LOVES his books. He will go in his room, take one book down, "read" it, put it in a pile, and then get another one. The theme this year appeared to be trucks.
I had made some cinnamon rolls to have Christmas morning and set them out to thaw overnight. My ingenious husband set this up so we could have a warm and delicious breakfast. Yummy!
Being silly with a penguin Ward got.
Both girls got dress up dresses and Evie promptly put hers on. She also got a horse, or pony as she likes to say, from MeMe that she named "Laura." She has been brushed, fed, and saddled regularly.
The next day we moved in with Karen and Winston for a few days and then had the Hartley Family get together. For pictures from that, you'll have to tune in tomorrow, and believe me, you want to tune in!

Honey, I think the horses name is Mary. You might want to ask Eves.

You're right, honey, the horse's name is Mary.
