Pre-Christmas fun

We had quite wintery weather in the weeks leading up to Christmas. Lots of snow with a mix of temperatures ranging from definitely-not-going-outside cold to let's get-out-now-while-the-sun-is-out "warm". On one of the warmer days we took in a historic house which is decorated inside and out each Christmas. Daniel loved all of the lights outside, the numerous Christmas trees and toy trains inside as well as their menagerie of pet animals.

Back at home, Daniel's first snowman. We were clearly short on traditional supplies, but I think we did a respectable job.
