It's the most wonderful time of the year!

Last night while I was at work the snow came for the first time this year. By the time i got off (about 11.15 pm) it had snowed a lot and I was ecstatic! I love the snow and to me it is one of the most beautiful things in the world! Everyone keep telling me that it would be gone by the next morning so when I came home I got my camera out and took some pictures, just to prove that it had really snowed. The pictures are taken at about 11.30-12 pm so they are a bit blurry, but you sure can see the snow! :D 

When I woke up this morning I was excited to see if the rain had come or if the snow was still there and luckily it was. So I put Gus in the car and drove out to the horses and spent the day there. Enjoy the pictures of my beloved snow.

P.S. I'm pretty sure the horses love the snow too!

An afternoon, in the stables

can result in some pretty awesome shots.

Winter Wonder Storm!

This weekend Dennis and I had Kaja and Marius with us to my cabin in Son. It's been storming here for days and the water is extremely high. We couldn't walk along the beach without being hit by the huge waves or almost being blown into the water by the strong winds. 

 If it hadn't been for Gus we would have stayed inside all weekend but the little guy has so much energy so we have been walking a lot in the woods.

Can you please stop taking pictures and just throw that stick? Please!?

The water was almost 2 meters higher than normal

The dark skies and rough sea made the mood very special on Sunday when the sun came for a visit.

 Gus was really happy that he could finally play at the beach for a little while

 Until we found refuge in the forest on our way back.

While I'm waiting for the snow

I'm enjoying the magical light created by the long rays of the much too early setting sun

The last few flowers still in bloom

 My darling Gus

 Warm hats and sunglasses

 The surprisingly springlike colors in our garden

 the not yet fallen evidence of summer

 and the sharklike eye of my neighbors car

It's Simply Gustastic

I feel it's been awhile since you've seen Gus as his best so here are some of the pictures I took today.

It's just below freezing here, but the sun still has a nice warmth to it. We try to enjoy the nice days so today we were out for over two hours!

I can't say I'm looking forward to brushing that tail. But that's what you get when you throw the stupid ball into the bushes... *Sigh* Will I ever learn? 

Welcome Back Winter Once Again
