Musher Mania and other Winter Fun

We have a little catching up to do. These events happened in January.

Our first snowman of the year. M was so excited and begged and begged to go build him from the moment it started snowing on. I told her we had to wait until the snow stopped before we started, which happened to be 2 days later.
Even though we didn't have the traditional embellishments, we think he turned out quite fine. He has cranberries for his hair and smile, grapes for eyes and a sesame candy for his nose.

Then with the hard work behind us, it was time to make a few snow angels.

Here's M at our annual trip to Musher *Mania. This event is put on by a husky/mushing club. They have dog visits, demonstrations, stories, and ice carving. It is a great event.

M really enjoyed visiting with the huskies this year.

I got to try pulling M on the sled. She thought it was great, me not so much.

Those dogs do some hard work.

After finishing up our fun with the dogs, M and Baba had snowball fight. M is about to get plastered by the one you can see in mid-air.

M getting her revenge up close.

And Baba goes down.
