Cherish is my favorite word, and I cherish the ability of turning the routine into a beautiful moment.
Nature creates in me, a spiritual and meditative time to bring peace, harmony and balance, into an otherwise ordinary day~

Making the Best of a Dusting of Snow~

This has been one of the mildest winters that we have had in a very long time...no complaining coming from me...I promise! 
We may still have some surprises, but with spring edging closer, it just might be that these kind of snow dustings will be all that we shall see this season. 
The twins came over the other day after some snow had fallen and the husby and I decided to take them out on the sled.  This is the same sled that their momma used to be pulled around on when she was their age. 
Meaka, our pup-cub was all to willing to join in the fun as well. 
I hope that everyone is feeling well and that your coming week will be filled with joy and warmth and good health...take good care~



The twins turn 3 next month...this is Cullen. 
He is 1 minute older than his brother...
I am 2 minutes older than my twin sister Haze~


Who could say no snow play to those beautiful brown eyes...pleading to please let her romp in the snow too~




And this is Kerrick...
the twins have really different little personalities,
and they are so cute, watching out for each other~



Ready, set go...catch me if you can~


Bill enjoyed pulling the boys all around our two acres...
Over the river and through the woods to Grandmother's house we go...
Ok it is a creek and it is Nana's house...same difference though... well maybe, sort of~





Faster Papa, faster...go that way...go over there Papa~

Squirrels, Bluebirds, Dogs & Bees... Oh My~

Just one of those days... that brought large amounts of rain, loud claps of thunder, some lightening strikes, large doses of high winds and even so, I was able to get in some pretty nice captures.  

I took our German Shepherd...Countess Meaka Von Warfenburg...

Meaka for short on a little drive.  We came upon a Red-fox Squirrel doing what they like doing way too often...goofing off in the middle of the lane, so I made sure it got out of the way and it offered me a couple of nice poses for the help.  We also saw a female Eastern Bluebird with nest building materials in her beak.  It was beginning to rain and so we came home.  Since it is spring break, a few neighbors are traveling and I have been left in charge of their porperties.  I always take my camera with me and on the lovely assorted Hyacinths across the lane, a bee was busy collecting pollen.  All in all, it was a very nice day, even with all of the naughty weather~
