Winterluding!

Valentine's Day blew in a hearty load of welcome visitors: sister Dawn, niece Amy and Amy's children, Averley and Kohen!






Ave, older sister, takes great care of little brother when she's not teasing him to distraction. She really knows how to make him belly-laugh!
Little brother is learning to speak and is a great communicator. He prattles on incessantly with no one but his mother understanding a word, well, ok, maybe the rest of us understand the odd word. He's created his own language! Strange but pretty much understandable.
Both kids were immediately on the hunt for Dolly-cat who headed for the most inaccessible hidey-hole in the house. When it comes to hiding, she's a pro!
Dawn and her clan (others arriving today) are headed to Winterlude in Ottawa. Ya gotta check it out. Who wouldn't want to say they've skated the longest skating rink in the world and tasted a Beavertail at the same time, not to mention being bowled over by the awesome ice sculpture? It's definitely something to add to YOUR bucket list!
