A Winter Wonderland

It really is a 'winter wonderland' here. We have had snow falling constantly for the past 3 days, and as you can see from the pics above, it is just like the Christmas cards.

A few days ago we ventured into the forest and cut our Christmas tree down, it's surprising how they seem just the right size standing out there amongst all the other trees, but when you try to get them inside the house they seem to have doubled in size.

But after a few attempts and some judicious branch trimming it sits in pride of place in the living room, it's candle shaped lights glowing through the branches.

Sally, the lovely flat coated retriever we are caring for here just loves the snow, she buries here whole face into the fluffy white stuff, and looks like she has a white beard as she hurtles full speed at you. The two cats Flecka and Swartz spend most of their time in their heated room in the barn, and Ebba the rabbit just enjoys her own space and of course, the leftover veges.

We have loaded up with groceries and DVD's as they are predicting more snow then colder weather for the next few days, but with our own indoor sauna and lots of firewood we will be warm and cozy.<
