UPDATE 20 DECEMBER 2013

We are getting closer to being ready for Christmas, but still have some things to do.  It seems to have crept upon us faster than usual this year.  Went skiing the other day and had some pretty good powder in the trees.  But the resort could use some more snow.  Nephew Carl and his family are here and we have enjoyed visiting with them.  The kids have helped us feed the horses every morning.  They sure seem to enjoy that.

Andrew has to wear a mask around the hay as he is allergic to it.
