Here are some obligatory Snow 2010 pictures:

Papa in the snow

Mama can’t see in the snow without sunglasses

James getting his hat in his eyes

The whole neighborhood came out to go sledding in the big bowl at the park near our house.

The car outside our front door. What, you don’t see a car? Hint: look for the side-view mirror sticking out.

James has come to love his monkey Chesterton (officially Chesterton Alyosius Thorndyke) from Auntie Becky. He is often James’ companion when Mama and Papa are mean and make James sit in his high chair during dinner instead of in their laps.

Sometimes Mama gives James a homeschool hairdo. If you don’t know what a homeschool hairdo is, you probably weren’t homeschooled. This hairdo suits him especially well when Papa decides to tuck James’ shirts in.

Tea and homemade cookie-dough ice cream the day before Lent, which also happened to be Valentine’s Day, so it necessitated the pink china.

Already helping with the laundry!

Like father, like son. I came across Paul reading Greek while James was reading about ducklings in his fabric book. Maybe soon I’ll come across them both reading Greek. He already has Greek alphabet blocks from Uncle Phil and Aunt Kelly, so I’m sure it won’t be long!
