Hooftrimmer

 Thursday and Friday were hoof trim days 

Power outage

We had a branch on the wires

 It shorted out the fuse 

Freezing rain

The sound of ice in the trees

Looks pretty 

 

But it’s hard on the trees

Lots of ice

Marc's birthday

It's Marc's birthday

Feels like Spring

Lots of snow yet, but it feels like Spring

 

Esmee

a favourite place to be

playing with oma

this used to be Marc's favourite toy

love her hair

"toys" from the kitchen drawer

 

Olympics

 We're watching speed scating

New Wine

I bottled the 2025 wine

 

Old Snow

Marc blew a path to the pond

this is old snow, very firm and a lot of it

Looking forward to see water instead of ice

 

Worship Paint night

there were quite a few people

we all got paint a brush and paper

Nicole was our instructor

I sat at a table with other newbies 

first you were supposed to paint a background

I also splashed some paint on mine to get some drops

we also had big papers for practice 

Nicole challenged us to paint the outside

of a flower first, called negative painting

all ages were represented

kids had fun 

I tried to make poppies

didn't look much like the example

but it sure was fun

On the way out I looked at Nicole's examples

they're very pretty
