Applejack needs a "big kid" bed

Hiya, Applejack here.
When we were little, my sister and I could both fit in our little fuzzy bed (I'm on the left).


One day, more recently, Mom woke up to find me sleeping in this position (I stretched and then fell right back to sleep again) and I think it's a convincing argument that I need a "big kid" bed.

Don't you just love our costumes? Cinderella and Batman.




Our cousins Tucker and Carolina dressed up, too.

February 1st - Our first snow!

Zoë here -

Well, technically, it had snowed once before, but this was the first time we had the chance to actually touch it!
I take that back. Applejack touched it. I wasn't convinced it was something I wanted to do.
It was amazing to watch, and, watching from the window I thought I did want to play with it.


But then Mom opened the door to let me out and dang was it cold outside! I wasn't going out there, not me, nuh-uh, no sir!


But Applejack was braver than I was. First he checked it out, from the shelter of the doorway.


Then he walked right out onto the deck. I couldn't believe it! He was like "hey, Zoë, come on, check it out" and I was like "no way, I'm fine right where I am." So he just starts walking all around, kinda tip-toe-ing because it was so cold.


Then it was funny because he started coming back inside and was like "Whoa! What's this? Did someone else come out here with me?" He had seen some paw prints in the snow and started following them back inside.
Sheesh. I had to explain to him that they were actually his pawprints, duh!"
