Last Wednesday with Miss V, found us at the park!!!
It was a sunny day...but with a wee bit of a nippy wind...
Nonetheless...a good time was had by all...
After the park...it was time for a bit of painting...
Her concentration was unbelievable...
She enjoyed doing this so much...
One for her Mama and one for Papa...♥️
We also made a trip to Walmart, to purchase a booster car seat...
She has reached the weight requirement for one of these...
So much easier than the much larger one we had...
Now...we can take her in either vehicle...not just the 4x4...
She was enthralled with it!!
We used it on Friday...to pick her up after our drive to the cottage...
We had a Friday night sleepover with her, here at home...!!!
And...it was fun!!
I have a few pics to share with you all later...
The picture of RED was taken on Sunday afternoon...
We have had a bit of unwelcome snow here lately!!
The bird feeder shot was taken this morning!!!!!
And...it is not gonna melt!!!! Supposed to be very cold all week...
And...into the weekend!!!!
There goes any cottage sleepovers for a while...:o(
Hope you all had a great weekend...
Did you get any snow??? High winds??? Geesh!!!
Didn't do much today...a bit of laundry...rearranged a few kitchen cupboards...
Oh yes...I baked something quite delicious indeed!!!
It involved yogurt....blueberries...lemon juice and zest...
Yummy!!
Enjoy your evening...
Cheers! :o)

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)
linda♥️
It started with a walk to the park...
The mandatory Dandelion blow...
Monkey business...
Bike ride...
Back home...
Lunch...
Nap...
Swim...
PHEW!!
Nana and Papa are worn out!!
These Hydrangeas in my front yard, are just beautiful!!
They are supposed to be Limelight, but are much whiter than my bush in the backyard...
This HUGE Spider likes them too!!
This planter of Spider plant, Geraniums and Potato vine is still going strong...
Think I might take this inside for the winter!
Love the pink Geranium with the darker centre...
And...
The Pansies from Easter are blooming again!!
see the snail!!
Miss V and I picked these wild flowers, on the way to the park...
She thought Mrs Frog...on my front steps... might like to look at them♥️
That day was Papas turn to help her float...
She laughed so hard when he dove under, and came up at the other end of the pool!!
"Papa...you can swim under the water? Papa your hair is wet"!!!
Gotta love it!
Miss V is here again today...
She has a wee touch of croup...
Feels ok for a few hours, and then kinda runs out of steam...
Better to be here with her Nana and Papa, than at day care♥️
Lots of TLC for her here...
She had a nap...and wanted to go in the pool again!!
Geesh....wish she had wanted this earlier in the season...
She would probably be swimming herself by now!!
Oh well...better late than never, I guess...
Also...another bike ride!
All around the block...
Hope you are all having a great day...
Heading back to the cottage early in the morning...
Supposed to be nice...but some rain on Saturday...
We may stay til Monday...
Want to enjoy these last few days of SUMMER!
Temps back to seasonal by next week...
This past week has been glorious weather...
Gonna miss SUMMER...
Hope AUTUMN is just as nice...
Enjoy your evening...
Have a great weekend my friends...
Cheers! :o)
