We were unprepared for the snow, so all of our summer stuff is still outside.

Caught off guard

Well the snow was fun, but most of it is gone now. I am enjoying the cold air though, oh so refreshing!

Enjoy!

We had eight cords of wood delivered two days ago. That makes a large  pile for us to cut, split and stack. The logs are eight feet long.
Here is a photo of hubby tending the fire in our outside woodstove.

Just for fun, here is a picture of Amanda making chicken noodle soup, which has no chicken or noodles but a bunch of grass, leaves, flowers and mud! Here the kids are playing on the  slide at the beach. Last but not least,  Puggers!

Enjoy! TGIF! Have a great weekend.
