We've had a fair few snow showers (and howling wind) down here in Co'path, but not enough for the kids to use their sledges (which they got for Christmas 2006 and haven't used yet).

So we headed up into the hills instead, searching for a slope that's close enough to the road, steep enough (but not too steep) and with enough snow to not get stuck in the grass.

Found it (eventually)

Spent the morning pumpkin carving with Ruaridh. This was my pumpkin, showing what happens to naughty turnips...

Here are Ruaridh's and Morgan's:

Yeah, it's only 3 veg beds, but it still makes me feel like a farmer.

The standard Christmas Letter that we didn't have enough space to put in the cards!

While we were on holiday, Morgan learned a lot of really smart stuff. It goes without saying that we think he's a genius - see what you think.
