This is how you walk the dog when it's minus 30

Reindeer and country scenes

 Kaya proudly did a pastel aurora.

 A painting I made for Zoe's birthday.

 Cousins check out the reindeer and her baby.

 Pin the tail on the donkey.

 My favourite photo of the snow drifts in the light and shadow.

 Some colour for a cold winter's day.

Making trails

 The guinea pig and the Monster Truck.

 Redwood Meadows and a beautiful day for a cross-country ski.

 Pigeons along the rail lines.

 Turtles all the way down.

The giant happy snowman

No end of fun with photobooth.

 Adlai's Remembrance Day art.

 Breakthrough on the monkey bars.

 The little snowman.

The largest, happiest snowman on the block. It took all of us working together to lift the body!

 My favourite picture of the month. It honestly makes me happy every time I see it.

Winter comes early

 The ravine is already frozen with a decent blanket of snow by November 5.

 The kids and I go for a ski in West Bragg Creek on November 8 in a mini snowstorm.

 My levitating yogis.

The kids take care of Feliz the guinea pig.

All Hallows Eve
