I am thankful for my family and my friends that my life has been blessed with.
I am thankful for nature and all the beauty that is in life if we look for it.

Winter is long in the Jura.  
Snow is simply a part of our life here.
We had snow as deep as now this past Easter.  My children searched for Easter eggs in snow up to my knees which meant it was up to my son’s waist.  So, don’t be surprised when you see photos of snow [...]

In my previous post, I took you on the first part of our Sunday walk. Today, I will take you on the rest of the walk. The wind blew something fierce along the top of the village and made me wish I could blink myself back home into the warmth.  
It was freezing [...]

On Sunday, we took a walk before dinner.  It felt good to get out and feel the snow crunching under our feet. 

I made homemade apple pie that the kids enjoyed helping me decorate. My favorite is my six year old’s happy face. It came out of the oven looking like it was winking at [...]

We had a snowball fight with the children during our walk around the village yesterday.  It was fun.

Yesterday, it started out all grey with rain, rain and more rain.  Later on some blue sky burst through the grey.  It lifted my spirits.

Soon after the rain mixed with snow and later the snow took over.  

It has snowed since late afternoon [...]

Today, it is warm enough that I had to remove my scarf and coat while waiting at the bus stop for the girls. It is hard to believe that only last week we were covered in snow. The sun is quickly melting the few patches of beautiful snow that remain as a reminder [...]

It is so beautiful that I find myself stopping several times during a short walk to try to take it all in.  It isn’t just me that has slowed down with the arrival of the snow.  My children can’t walk without diving into the snow every few yards or wading knee deep before they stop [...]
