Actually, Hannah's project is on display at the school Science Fair. She worked hard on it (with little assistance from Dad) and the outcome was successful - it worked!

Joshua cooperates . . .

"Donuts for Daddy"

Doesn't this little girl look absolutely thrilled that her daddy made it to such a special day at her school? David whizzed down 95 (no officers in the viewing audience, right?) to get there on time. From the looks on their faces, it was worth it!

Snow wrestling?

No, actually Haylie was preventing her two-year old brother from climbing to the top of the snow hill.

Our big worry - power lines and telephone line running through snow-laden pines.

Fortunately, they are young and supple trees and they withstood the snow!

Ian's first haircut on his second birthday . . .

and he doesn't look too happy does he. He sat through the whole experience like a trooper but never lost his very serious business demeanor. He was a perfect customer according to the stylist. She was amazed that he was so quiet and compliant with her various head turning requests. We all agree he is no longer "Baby Ian" but still "Ian Bean Mitchell Wormbucket".
