Hello, My Visitors & Bloghoppers...

I SEE YOU!

I love visitors and I see quite a few of you from all over...

Most of whom I can identify but a few others are a little more tricky...

So who are you?

Even if I don't know you personally - leave me a message, say hello, tell me how you found me (and if it's via a relative...don't be afraid to claim your relatives...I know you don't always get to pick them!) :)

and be glad that you aren't living here, where today the temps w/ windchill are unfortunately around the -40's!

You are welcome to visit this way instead as its...

more affordable, no packing and hopefully its warmer!!

Here is where I've seen a few of you from...

More Holiday Memories & Warmer Temps too...

The view from the top...oh, and Dale's landing strips...
The big kids taking a turn...looks like it takes some help to get them moving...?
Here they go again...
Levi and Corina chatting on the hilltop.
Another view from the top and a close-up of Dw.

Trista, Levi and Aj
Dad's turn...fortunately he seems to be past the stage of thinking that he should go down standing up!
Now this is the best way to get back up...
The Grandmas and the Grandsons...
Big kids at the bonfire...

Shelby peeking out of his seat...
Tracy and Corina
The barn
The trail from G'ma J's old place back to U & A's.
The setting sun...

Strong like ox...brain like chicken...

Common sense would say..."Nope...it wouldn't be wise to cross the river with .8 of an inch of ice just to jump the river bank..."

But this young man (possibly a relative of mine) decided it made perfect sense. So...here is one of the many times he crossed and lazily popped over the bank.

Oh, and I apologize that 5 minutes earlier when he ran the entire length open water just east down the river that I didn't make it to my recording pad in time...and therefore no pics, no video. Ah...Red Neck fun in NW Ontario.

Saturday shoppers w/ sniffles...

She came...she shopped...she sniffled...she found all of auntie's dollies in the "toy" box...
He came...he shopped...he sneezed...he tried on auntie's hats...

A Costco pizza lunch...a little time to play...and then back on the road home!

A very patriotic pair...

At 3 1/2 and 1 3/4 you are allowed to have your own version of the national anthem, right?

Mr. L starts right in and then quickly wraps it up in hopes that a hockey game would start...Big Sis A decides to sing to him the "right" ending and he gladly hollers out his favourite part...

"Shoot the puck!"

He has also been known to holler..."Go Wheaties" and "Wheaties...make some noise!"

These kids know their country's national anthem and they are voting for hockey as our national sport...is it? I don't even know!

Playing in the Winter Wonderland...

Miss A - a snowy sitting duck...
Levi - eating his snowy scarf...

Looks like he took a face plant!
Say what? Who was eating their scarf?
Peek
Yum - as long as you only eat the white snow...
Again playing in the snow so she could avoid looking at the camera!
Chairs for two and then some all along G'pa's snow banks in the driveway.
