a pmf Christmas

a couple of weeks ago we drove to the pmf for some Christmas fun...

 there's always guns involved in Christmas fun

 and cutting wood for the fire place

and don't forget a little fishing

 jack was excited about his presents

 granny got a new ring for red hats

 and it snowed on Christmas day!

 not too shabby!

i am holding leanne personally responsible for my weight gain because 

she made a bunch of these cute fellas...

great Christmas and a fun and relaxing time with family!
