Monday, December 30th Sweet and Cold

A morning of maple syrup sticky buns....




 and an afternoon sanding an icey driveway in frigid cold temperatures.

Thursday, December 26th Grumpy Men

I couldn't not get this candid shot posted on POD, despite it didn't happen on the 26th.  It was taken on Dec. 24th during our lunch stop in Jeffersonville on our way back from touring Thunder Basin Maple Sugar House.  Who knows what caused the frowns, but I caught it in a candid moment. We went on to have a very happy lunch!

Tuesday, December 24 Shock and Awe

Dale presents Mom with a plate of Christmas cookies for Christmas Eve desert.
They are absolutely beautiful, and look like they came straight out of Coastal Living magazine.
And then she proceeds to tell us she made them herself, which produced a reaction of Shock and Awe in mom!
