Finally the water has broken through and the lake isn’t frozen. Such a beautiful sight after such a darn long winter.

Spring is here!!!

But wait… it’s still cold enough that when the water splashes up against the breakwall, it comes down as ice pellets forming “snow dunes” along the dock.

LOL… No more snow!!!

Having just discovered the built in webcam in my laptop, the kids were anxious to send their grandparents in Florida a video gram…

A couple of weeks can make! The weather is crazy this winter. Here’s a picture I took in the backyard just before the holidays…

That was just a couple of weeks ago after getting hit with 15″ of snow in one day.

Can you see the mounds of snow built up from the waves pushing into shore? If you click on the image, you can view the original picture on Flickr.

I love the way the snow forms little islands on the water. If only we had penguins!

Today it’s 15c (or 59F) and sunny… Feels like spring and it’s mid-January!

Just before Christmas, Jack was killed by a car mid-afternoon. Stupid driver… he took a big piece of our heart.

Sometimes the smallest things have the biggest impact on our lives and jack was one of them. This poem was written by my husband…

“I want him back” was all she could say.

Not in memory – but here and now – TODAY!

All love will eventually become lost.

We need to give no matter the cost.

Fighting on for just a chance to believe,

To have someone wonderful who won’t leave.

Each of us follows a set path.

We are lucky to be loved and share a happy laugh.

It’s so easy to toss around guilt and blame.

But who wants to live life tame?

We teach and show what we can.

Each chapter is part of a grand plan.

I hate that all life is on loan.

And it can change with the ring of the phone.

It hurts to our very core,

God took our angel… but there will be more.

From Earth to Sky
