[There's been a ladybug hanging around the house for a couple of days; today, ADF got a chance to inspect it closely. And sorry about the quality of the second shot - the macro feature can be a bit tempermental.]
[See, I've never really grown up. I still harbour the slim hope that if I don a baseball jersey, I might somehow become a professional baseball player. This is my latest attempt: a brand new, hyper-authentic Ichiro Suzuki jersey. A little pathetic, I know.]
[Hearing forecasts of above-freezing temperatures and even rain this coming weekend, we wanted to get out into the deep, soft snow before the opportunity escaped us. So we did some XC skiing (top; I did the work, ADF rode shotgun), some sledding (not pictured), and finally some plain old frolicking (bottom). ADF didn't want to go back inside.]
