School Christmas Program

This is the Minersville school Christmas program. The school is K-8. The theme was "Christmas at the Zoo".

Logan's class were monkeys. Well hippie monkeys to be exact. Each class did a dance and sang a song. The monkeys sang Jingle Bells like monkeys. They only sang the vowels! It was really cute.This is our monkey! The hair is supposed to be dread locks. He ate the ears after the performance. I guess we didn't feed him enough dinner! His vest came apart during the dance but he kept going as if nothing happened. He said that is what his teacher told him to do.

Stumpy the Snowman!

We had a beautiful day after some very snowy ones so I decided to play in the snow with the kids!

I built a snow fort with the boys when Logan got home from school!

Jason started a snowball fight when he got home. Then we built Stumpy the Snowman! The snow didn't pack very well. This is more of a sculture rather than the traditional rolling of the snowballs to make them bigger. It was fun anyway. Mac has since added some color to our snowman and fort!
The boys also had lots of fun making snow angels!

Puppies

Scout had her last litter of puppies on December 15. She had 8 but we lost 2 the next day. She is a terrible mom. She doesn't take care of herself. Things like eating and drinking water tend to be forgotten and then she doesn't have any milk. We think one puppy had complications from birth because we had some come breach with the sack broken so it may have filled its lungs. Poor Guy. The other one was the runt and got dehydrated from not enough milk. It is scary how fast it can happen. We almost lost 2 more but I found a formula for them and I bottle feed them to help supplement the lack of milk. They have done a lot better. So we have 4 boys and 2 girls.
