Winter

 

"Winter is the season in which people try to keep

the house as warm as it was in the summer, when they complained

about the heat!"

I don't want to hear about how hot it is in Latin America.  It was - (minus) 20 with the wind chill today and tomorrow doesn't look much better - in fact next week doesn't look much better.  Thumbelina spends her days curled up by the fire after her quick run in the backyard.  We all have perpetual "hat heads".

 

Avalon started a trend with her "Sock Monkey" hat and gloves that she got back in October - unfortunately, now they are everywhere!

From the front seat of the car, Trinity doesn't like the heat blowing on her, so it's a constant battle between the two of us - turn it on, turn it off.  I might have to banish her to the back! The winds have been so cold the past few days that I dread getting out of the vehicle to get gas, so I procrastinate until it starts beeping it's low gas warning to me.  Every Tim Hortons' drive thru is packed.

At least, there are some pretty outdoor skating photo ops:
