Winter Camp

A beautiful weekend in mid February to enjoy a little camping out in the snow.



Tents are all set up, and looking cozy for later in the night.


Good friends enjoying the snow.



Snowshoeing down the trails.

Great day for a snowshoe.






End of the snowshoe hike through the woods.  We ended up at a little farm.


And got to hang out with the baby lambs.

Something to walk on.

We've been working on our main floor flooring for a bit.  It is looking great.   We've got beautiful pine floors with a red boarder.

Outside, Time Stands Still.

Out in the backyard

A beautiful, sunny day here in the north.  A good time to take a little snowshoe around the backyard and enjoy the warm rays.

Photo Challenge Week 1

I've decided to try one of the many photo challenges that exist. This is just to have a little fun and I've decided to go with weekly photos instead of daily because I didn't succeed the last time I tried daily.  I know I will still miss weeks, especially when I am too exhausted as a new mom, although maybe baby will be the inspiration to the photos, especially since Grandma, Grandma, Grandpa, Grampi, Nanny, and aunts and uncles will want the visual updates.

So without further ado, here is week one - a photo of me at the beginning  (and the baby bump for all those interested).

A new month, a new chapter

February has arrived.  Around here that means a new chapter, well you could probably say a new book, in our lives.  I am officially no longer going to the office and am spending my vacation time nesting.  We've passed the 8 month mark, so only a few more weeks until there is a new J-P family member.  Various people are asking to see a photo, so I have the camera battery charging. (guess I better learn to keep it charged now; apparently first babies 'require' a lot of photos).  Soon, I'll capture and post something.

The count down is on....
