Snow Day!!!!

Oh what fun we had after our first real snowfall!
We all got dressed up warm...
Grabbed our shovels...
And...
Dug in!!
I think it was very appropriate that my crochet was worn by all... 
Even if...
Miss V's crazy pom pom hat is on backwards! 
Hahaha!
Man...she loves to help...with any chore...anywhere!
Boyfriend purposely left the snow...
So she could help clear the drive!


Off we go thru the park..."Walk in my footprints Nana"...
"Okey dokey Miss V♥️"
"One slide and we have to go home"..."okay?"
"Ok Nana"...
Man...it was COLD...windchill -17c...brrrr!
Just look at that wintry sky!!




On our way back home...
Miss V decided to go up one of the small slopes that surround the park...
The snow was much deeper there...as there had been blustery winds the night before...
She went up...and then down...
On her way down...
She got in over her knees...
Fell...
And...
Ended up with a snow face!!!
I happened to capture the event, as I was taking a photo of the sky!!
She was such a good sport!!
Laughing...and laughing...♥️

Look at that Snow face!!
All dry by the time we got back home...
You can see the "booboo" on her nose here...
A small accident at school...:o( 







A wee bit off topic here...
On one of our afternoon walks this week...
On garbage day...
This was out for the trash!!!
Perfect condition!!!
I dragged it home!!
What a great chair!!!
A bit of spray paint...
A pretty cushion...
Awesome!!
Just have to decide whether to keep it here at home...
Or...
Take it to the Lake!
Decisions...
Decisions... 
 



 I am just lovin' this scarf I made! I showed you all last week...but I had to bundle up with it for our Park trip!!
And...yes...I did wear a coat this time! hahaha!!











Just on our way our the door..
Friday trip to the cottage!
Wonder how much snow is out there???

Have a great day and weekend, if I don't see you!
Mussels tonight for the boyfriend...
Small pizza for moi!!
Greek Salad for both!!

                                     Cheers!  :o)

  1. Just look at those rosy cheeks! Looks like you got about the same amount of snow as us. But the temps are warm today and we're supposed to get rain....it's already melting away!

    All that walking! Good for you, lady! Hope the weekend is wonderful....

    2. Sounds good to me Monique...
      Think white would be too hard to cover the green...
      Perhaps black would be cool!

  4. I am having a bit of snow-phobia.
    It got cold so fast that it's been making me shiver from the inside.
    Although, today might be a good day for snowmen...
    Your little one is cute with or without a boo boo on her nose.
    And you are a brave grammy.

  11. Miss V is sure having fun in the snow. That's who this wretched stuff is for...the kids. lol Can you tell I want spring? We shouldn't complain as it's been a good one so far. I love Miss V's jacket. That is so cute. And love your scarf. I couldn't go out without one all winter. And, you look gorgeous, as usual. Enjoy your evening, Linda. I'll be grooming Audrey while I watch a movie. Hope I come out of it alive. Hugs

      She loves being outside!
      Lovely weekend to you as well....

  14. Love that chair! What a find. It would look great in both places. I would be of two minds. You would view it more frequently at home... but it's so perfect for the cottage. Maybe it can be a travelling chair! Summer at the cottage and winter in town!
    Those sky photos are glorious. Miss V looks so cute and happy. What a great helper she is.
    Wonderful picture of you - so pretty. And what a cosy scarf. Perfect. We don't have much snow at all here.

      Thanks Suzanne....I am pretty happy with the scarf...perhaps another one is needed!
      I can keep busy with some crochet!
      Enjoy your weekend!

      Sure! I found it somewhere...help yourself!
      Glad you liked the post!

  16. I vote for the chair in a charcoal color, kind of like it is now . . .
    Brighter cushion with a rich yummy looking fabric . . .
    Perfect . . .

    1. It is actually a green right now...I will keep charcoal in mind!
      Has to be a colour to cover the green easily! I am lazy! Hahaha!

  17. Great chair find, cute as usual Miss V. and you're looking very trendy in your scarf, Ms. Linda. My favourite kind of cultural day today. Took the GO train down to the Art Gallery with my visiting SIL. No snow in downtown T.O. at all, but windy and cold...brrr. Enjoy the rest of the weekend...

  19. The snow is beautiful, and Miss V looks so cute out there playing. What a great little helper she is too! Your scarf looks very stylish, as well as warm. That is one fabulous chair - I'd have picked it up too :)

  20. No snow here yet, Linda. I'm actually beginning to miss it...Miss V is certainly a good sport and quite the helper. It's amazing how children love to help isn't it. I'm not happy about that boo boo on her nose though. Are you putting Vitamin E on it so it doesn't scar?

    LOVE your scarf and that chair! What a find!!! I think you will probably take it down to the cottage. It sings cottage chair!!!

    Thanks for sharing, Linda...Enjoy the snow:)
