The canoe

Uncle Donnie owned a canoe... a beautiful wooden canoe.  Years ago, he rescued it from a neighbor's front yard, and a couple weeks ago, he passed it on to us. It needs a fair bit of work, but since our boys are budding outdoorsmen, Chris and I thought they might be up for the challenge!

The wooden behemoth is currently living in the workshop

where it waits for the bitter cold days of winter to chase the boys indoors.
And who knows? Perhaps by summer it'll be water-worthy! 

And because my youngest can't resist a silly face for the camera... these pics.

And my youngest with a few of her own :)

Yep, she's fitting in just fine!
