Can We Just Hibernate Until Spring?




What a great time we had all summer, playing outside on and with all the fun stuff an acreage allows. Anytime the kids were fussy or fighting, I just took them outside. The fresh air, change of scenery and new activities were always the anecdote. And, for those reasons, I have been dreading the change of weather. Don't get me wrong, we love, LOVE, L O V E fall. But it's the rain, which turns to cold weather and snow, which means we're housebound that I hate! So, we've already had to start getting creative around the Handsaker House. We've built forts with sheets, using pillow cases as sleeping bags, we've taken household items, like the laundry basket, and re purposed them for things like a pretend dog kennel or a baby's bed. We've blown bubbles on the deck, baked, cooked, done clay projects, made jewelry, built farms on mountains (steps) and played endless games of hide and seek (which Cooer is really good at). Here are some pix of our futile attempts to enjoy the great indoors!
