We had a beautiful afternoon (while the rest of the country was freezing) and were able to get outside to do some yard work and to play. Since we never disposed of our Christmas tree after Christmas, I asked Cannon to chop it up so we could burn it. Those are words of magic to my 13 year old boy - saw and fire! Needless to say, things got a bit smokey and then I had fun with my camera.

Cool smoke and flame patterns.
Meanwhile the other two were busying themselves building a nest in the middle of the yard...
These pictures turned out really cool. Smoke Shadows (Cannon is on the other side of the fire pit.)
"Fanning the Flames"
The finished nest!
Oh, and not to sound like we're bragging, because there will be lots of time that you will have much finer weather than us, but I've got lettuce seeds coming up in a pot on my back deck. I threw them out there two weeks ago as a fluke and they're growing!
