ELVIAGE PEARL..

This is exactly how winter should look,

and I can't tell you how much I love this photo by Jennifer Squires.

So peaceful, so quiet, so beautifully winter!

 This year, on the 'Wet Coast', our winter has been incredibly mild.

We had the warmest January on record!

So I long to look out the window and see snow on the ground

and the bare trees silhouetted against the sky

instead of the usual grey skies and rain, rain, rain.

And once this is framed, I'll be able to see winter as I like it, everyday!

LENA LOU WHO...

sleeping on my bed~on my hoodie!

ya, she's settled in well!

TRAMPLED..

Saturday my Daughter was tossed off her horse.

She landed in front of her

and took a front hoof to her face.

She's stitched up,

red and swollen and bruised.

and very, very lucky.

We are so grateful that her injuries weren't worse.

So, this is probably my best Valentines gift ever~she will be OK.
