This morning I bring you a post from the cottage, where we’re cozied up by the fire enjoying the forces of nature around us. We arrived on Friday night after driving through steady, sticky snowfall, and Saturday turned out to be a sloshy warm day, perfect for building snowmen and forts out of the relatively…

Turkey Parade
How I spent my Family Day weekend… These guys put on a show for my parents, who accompanied us at the cottage in Coboconk for the first time this Family Day Weekend. In fact, all the wildlife was out putting on a show — we had swans flying over, geese and ducks, and a pair…
Rested and rejuvenated
So I’ve been MIA from the blogosphere yet again but for good reason. Firstly, I’ve been migrating to a new laptop which hast taken some time to get my Aperture library moved (and to learn Aperture 3, which has been completely overhauled from version 2), getting other software installed and bookmarks and address books ported…
Some older Luna video
I’m trying to catch up on some videos that I have saved up. This one is from Valentine’s Day weekend in February, when we took Luna to the cottage for the first time. She was about 10 weeks old here. It’s not overly thrilling video, but she’s super cute, playing in the snow, all little…

Hams for Thanksgiving
This was the first time the family was together at the new cottage in Coboconk (I know, I know its hilarious! People who live there call it “Coby”). The kids, Chris’s niece and nephew, were really into hamming it for the camera. Mr. B is about 2 and a half, and he’s one of the…
Giving thanks for a gorgeous weekend
Happy Turkey Day! I had the great fortune to spend a really beautiful weekend up in cottage country where the colours were on, full blast. I don’t know if I can remember such a perfect Thanksgiving weekend. It was easily between 20 and 25 degrees C, even up near Coboconk (locally known as “Coby”) and…
