things i love....

i love, love, love tracks. especially tracks in the snow. i like tracks in the sand, mud, dirt...where ever. i even like the little kitty tracks you get when a cat walks all over your car. i also really, really like to take pictures of tracks. and bird or duck tracks are just the best!!

so, on christmas day, hans and i decided that we should go out and feed the cows, give chuck a break, since it was christmas and all. so, i brought my camera and guess what i found?

all these cute tracks!! they were all around the hay. so i took pictures. they were so darn cute!

see how cute and tiny! mouse tracks! (or some other crazy small thing, like a mouse!) oh, and check out my "fittens". i made them! knitting fingerless gloves is way to hard and way too much time, so i knit fingerless mittens, hence, fittens! they work great for helping keep your hands warm while you are outside taking pictures. and they knit up pretty quick too. i should also mention that mine are a few years old. that is why they look a little ragged. they are holding up well, lasting through a few calving seasons. i wear them under my gloves all the time!

*****************UPDATE**********************

there has been some debate on what animal has actually made these tracks. so if you have absolute proof or just want to guess, please do. i still say mouse or some rodent. my mom says a bunny.... what do you think??
