Guitar Heroine
Keira picked up the guitar last weekend and started to jam on some tunes, inspired by an impromptu lesson from Sam.
Hope it sticks- she was good!

Open Doors
The doors are always open at the Martels, which is extra nice when there are frousins in town.

Emperor
Keira made a felt doll penguin, naming him "Emperor".
She then made him an igloo and a car, which requires 6 ice cubes for fuel.
Don't worry about it getting soggy- the ice cubes are made out of folded paper :)

Indoor Zoo
It's cold outside, so it is nice to have an indoor zoo to visit- courtesy of Lukas, Keira, Kassidy and Lennon.
Love the cat exhibit!
