Tuesdays around the world

DP,WE2&snow 059-2

THIS
was what we saw from our living room window last Friday night. Just as we were getting used to warmer temps and the smell of mud in the air......winter had other plans for us.

The kids were ecstatic to say the least. Not only was the snow falling and falling fast but it was the heaviest, stickiest snow of this year and I can't even remember when.

laugh-1

So......laugh we did!

This bad boy (snow blower) is Daddy's best friend. Of course he delights in pointing the hose at the kids as they squeal with delight.

Nope...didn't get a picture of that 'cause if he did that while I had my camera in my hand....well...then I'd have to kill him. (kidding....sort of!)

So.....we're one snowfall closer to the end of winter, right? (Just trying to stay positive here.)

Enjoy our little journey around the world.

Favorite Photo Friday

MiB & Our shoot 207 wm

Can everyone see that puddle on the floor? That would be me every time this munchkin gives me one of her "looks"!

We never know what our lives will turn out to be but one things for sure for me.

Everything is always more fun with these two around!

.....and our sweet little ZiZi (the cat) realizes that her lot in this life is to succumb to various types of lovin' that is heaped on her in abundance.

Question: Anyone notice the changes on my blog?
Yes?
Well.....thank you for asking.

I needed to make some changes to accommodate a sidebar for ads and found this lovely lady - Gina from ChicHomeSchoolMama - who whipped it up in no time. Gina is one of those gals who really can do everything and do it all with utmost aplomb. She does a million things a day and still has time to warmly comment on so many blogs.

Thanks Gina -
for your expertise and intuitive eye and I know you'll be amazing as you branch out into blog designer. xoxo

Wed Feb 15,2012

This picture certainly IS my favorite one of the week!

It was bitterly cold last Sunday but the girlies braved the elements for a few moments for me to grab this shot....then rushing back to the warm car.

Visits from my friends

Hi, I'm Wanda. I am a happy woman, wife to Danny for...oh....lots a years and finally Mom to THE most adorable little girl from Hunan, China - Dahlia. And now we have been blessed again with another daughter, Milana, from Zhejiang, China. (The 2 best things I've ever done!) We live in the Montreal area. After a loooonnngg wait for Dahlia's little sister Milana (pronounced - Mee-lana, like banana), we finally brought her home in August 2009. Dahlia came to us in Nov 2004 (at 20 months of age)and a year later we began the application for another baby - at the time the waiting period was around 8 months. Almost 4 years later (say what!?!)we, at last, brought Milana home. This began as the story of our journey to bring Milana home and life with her big sister, Dahlia. It now continues as we live as a family of four!
God. My (growing) family. Hangin' out with my girlies. My wonderful friends (you know who you are!). To laugh (out loud and a lot!). Music. Painting. Hugs. Long chats with my buds. My garden. To read (ha...when I can!). Sunshine. Spring, Spring and more Spring. Building things. Cooking. Decorating. Parties (ahem). The internet. Life. Movies. A.I. Dancing with the stars. So you think you can dance. Travel. Umm..did I say laughing my head off. Oh Gee...everything actually!!
