Walking with my son

May 11, 2010

My son and I took over an hour and half walk today. We walked around the village and a little outside of the village. A few drops of rain forced us to pull up our hoods of our coats time to time. Mostly, it was clear and perfect for walking. We stood for several minutes [...]

Spring air

April 18, 2010

We got a walk in yesterday. It was so nice. The kids rode their bikes and they loved it. We were headed home full of happiness only to be told by someone that they didn’t get their bike out today because it was too cold. She actually told me that with my kids riding along [...]

The end of the snow

March 26, 2010

Emmie Cat had been enjoying the beautiful sun for about a week. Emmie stretched and slept in the sun most of last week from her chair. One of three that she claims as her own. Today, it rained and it snowed. I am sure that even Emmie is missing the sun and is ready for [...]

Even my cat can smell it! She is acting even more what I like to call “cat crazy” this week! She runs, bounces off furniture and meows…All the time. She is adorable. I opened up our windows to let in the fresh air like I do every single day at least twice a day. Emmie [...]

J’en ai marre

April 28, 2009

It started out fine enough. Rain in the morning. Now. We have snow. Not a little snow. Huge flakes of snow. Coming down at a steady pace. I really am fed up with the snow. For heavens sake, I just washed and put up all the scarves, gloves and snow pants until next winter. [...]

Today, in the Jura of Switzerland

April 19, 2009

I saw… Many cats enjoying the day in the fields. Spring buds covering trees and bushes. Young horses that wanted to say hello. Lovely Jura farms spread out before me. Daffodils growing wild in fields. Tree tops as we walked in the forest. Gendarme bugs playing choo choo (as in a train) according to my [...]

We needed to get out from under all the snow for the day. Neuchâtel was a perfect choice because it was bursting at the seams with spring. The girls and I are on Easter break for the next two weeks! We are planning on enjoying our time walking outdoors and saying goodbye to the last [...]

The signs of Spring are here and there even in spite of the snow that still covers the Jura. A bee with new buds. ********** Sorry about my last post missing. Vilay was messing around in his new blog and made a huge mess. In the end, Bluehost cleared it all up for us. Thank [...]

Ready for Spring

We did some shopping for the two youngest girls in Bienne Saturday. They are growing like weeds! While walking down a street I found a little bit of Spring blooming right over my head. Today, I am super busy but I wanted to pop in to wish you all a wonderful start to your [...]

Daytrip to Neuchâtel, Switzerland

April 27, 2008

It was a warm day in the mountains, but not warm enough. So, we took the train to Neuchâtel where we knew it would be more to our liking. It always surprises me how much warmer it is once we get out of the mountains. In Neuchâtel, there were leaves on the trees! LEAVES! Vilay [...]
