Bonjour

 Take a walk on the river with Pepper and I. 

I left the other 6 dogs at home. 

They aren't very happy with me.

 We're going East first.

Now West.

Those are snowmobile tracks.

It's easier to walk on.

Did you know they go up to 90 mph?

So with the windchill factor, that would be...

FREAKIN' FREEZING!!!

The pictures below were taken 2 weeks ago.

It hasn't snowed since.

 But there's no wind, which makes a huge difference. Only -10, not bad.

There was a pretty blue sky with a red and white airplane... see it up there?

Matches our house, how cool is that?

These pretty birds.

 Our feathered friends that visit.

 Here's my favourite this year. 

Isn't he handsome?

 This is "outside" our fenced area going home from the river. 
See the red on the left? That's our house.

 We live on a private road. 

Only 3 of us on a little peninsula.

 The backyard looks a little different doesn't it girls?

Only 125 days left till this again =.. (

 My outdoor shower with icicles. 

 THE POOL today.
That would be a "blanket" of snow.

 The corner of the guest cottage.

 Are you tired? Have a seat.

Only a few inches of snow have fallen. 

We still have a long winter ahead I think.

 Let's go inside.

Colt is putting a few more pellets in the stove to keep us warm.

Thanks Colt.

Are you still mad at me Bella?

This is my WINTER pic in my bedroom. It was my Aunty Maddie's. I'm the only one that wanted it, and it's PERFECT for the cottage. 

So pretty.

 Still LOVE my chandy.

 Getting the HEARTS out for Valentines.

 Mama and Fat Cat are in the house 24/7. 

Anything below 0, I keep them in.

 I changed things around again. 
I like change.

 And I like mirrors. 

Yup that's me. 

And I'm going to meet this little 
Aubree for the first time on Wed.

I can't wait to hold her. She's 3 months already.
We're going to have a photo shoot together.
 
Back to the mirrors.
 Makes small spaces look bigger.

 I made a big batch of spaghetti for Sister Lolotte. 

I boiled all the noodles for her.  

I was with her on Wed. 

We cried, we laughed and we reminisced.

Sister has been receiving your sympathy cards.
Thank you so much. She treasures every one.

 This is a vintage hat with a vintage pin. 

It hangs in my bedroom.

 My poodle lamp got a makeover too! 

She now has a sweet fur necklace around her base.

I actually wore it the other day (not the shade, the fur thing). It's from the 50's too.

So nothing else happening around here. 

It's been pretty boring actually.

I'm still laying low.

One year ago today we were in Mexico. 

A year already. 

How about I put some sun on your screen.

 THAT IS NOT MY LEG, It's Randy's.

 Till next time.

Aurevoir.

Oh! And I want one of these...
