Lotsa snow here in the North....


































































Hi all....How are ya all doing...It sure has been a while....We have had lots happening lately....Just this weekend we had about a foot of snow and another 6-8 inches today and its still snowing. Definitely not Spring conditions here yet....lol...As you can see....
Yes we had a fairly nice winter ...Had company coming and going....Ice fishing....Here's some of my hubbies catches over the ice fishing season....
As you can see from the large grin on my husbands face this is one of is very favourite hobbies.....He is a very dedicated ice fisherman.....I do like my bouts of fishing as well...Mostly when its not quite as cold and when the fish are biting...lol... We went for a trip to southern Ontario a few weeks ago and we stayed with Wim and Janet and family....Thanks again for the hospitality..!!!...We had a very nice time visiting family and friends...We then took the kids for an overnight to the Great Wolf Lodge in Niagara Falls...It was soooo nice....We had such a great time..It is set up like a true lodge....Log cosy feeling!!!..It had a huge indoor water park which my hubby and oldest son....LOVED!!!!.....Owie was not quite as daring as Jesse so we hung out in the kiddie pool but Daddy and Jesse did all the BIG water slides...The had a blast....Here are a few pics from our great family getaway....
The boys in front of the big animated tree..... Moose, bear and tree were mechanical and talked.... The boys in the room getting ready to go the water park Jesse wanting to go to the water park one more time.....lol Owen was having a GREAT time.....

This was the front entrance.....It was all log...Very cool....This was part of the main foyer...Where the eating areas were and the shows....etc....This was taken from our balcony....Just a view of the building....So yes we have been busy ....We are hoping that Spring is just around the corner but I think we can go tobogganing tomorrow with the kids and just might have to get our driveway plowed again....lol...But that's just life here in the North....Until next time...........

Sounds like a LOT of fun. The lodge, not the snow....:-) I will try to write you an e-mail this week regarding homeschooling. We're finishing it up for the year, so it's been pretty busy around here.....
