Big snow

We were blessed with an early blizzard this year bringing over 30 inches of snow. Let the snow fun begin!!

Drawing lessons

This morning Mom painted a picture of a horse for Hans. Rachel saw it, and this is what she said to Mom:
"I really need to teach you how to draw a horse, because the one you drew this morning looks like a big, fat mouse."
Rachel then gave Mom a blank piece of paper and started to give Mom lessons on how to draw a horse. Rachel did have to start over about three different times before succeeding to make a horse that only had four legs and was satisfied with how it looked.

MN deer hunt

Megan got her first buck this weekend - with dad and Luke in the stand, too. Matt shot a nice buck from the same stand the same morning. 

Laura shot this buck on the afternoon drive. Yeah for girl hunters!

Fun to have all the little hunters around. 

Fresh Air Farm

Fun visit to the cousin's farm to celebrate birthdays, press apple cider & play with animals. Lars even got to walk a goat on a leash.
