It is never good when my better half leaves (ditches) me for another trip over the big blue pond.  But it is even worse on the weekends.  Something about the endless schedule-free time with all these crazy kids sends me into a bit of a tizzy.  So when the snow started falling (again) this afternoon, I did what I had to do and got out the pom poms

That one in the middle is an owl (stop laughing people…I can hear you.  I told them it was an owl and they believed me and I’m sticking with it.)  The squirrel turned out kind of cute though, huh?  That was supposed to be a little nut nestled between his cute little hands (or feet?)…but the more I look at it the more I’m craving Cinnabon cinnamon rolls.  Maybe it’s just a coincidence.

Amazing how furry little balls of fluff can turn two bickering, whiney kids into loving siblings   I guess tomorrow I’ll be busting out the pipe cleaners (or chenille stems…that IS the PC term now isn’t it?)

Everyone is tucked into bed and I’m off to play a few rounds of forest creature fantasy land
