It is very rare that I am able to get a photo of Nittany.  He is a true scaredy cat and typically only shows his face in the evening after the kids are off to bed.  It took several tries before he would let me capture his essence.

Fresh snow and a freshly shoveled sidewalk.

On Sunday we took the kids ice skating down at the Ice Rink at PPG Place.  After we were done and everyone was taking off their skates I was able to capture this image.  The PPG buildings are probably my favorite in the city.

The Christmas of 2011 I started a new tradition of giving Sue a jigsaw puzzle as a gift.  That year her sister and her finished the puzzle in a few days.  This past Christmas I selected a more challenging puzzle, which is a field of lavender.  I anticipate that Sue will be done in about a week, possibly sooner.  This was taken on Saturday and she has made some great progress over the last several days.
