It's fun to be at a lake house in winter!

Ok, so this won't be a post about vintage anything, or something recycled, or anything cool and free.

But it will be about The House of Goodwill!

This ice/snow storm has been so fun, and such an unexpected delight that I want to post just a few more pics from this week.

First, photos from outside, where we have been spending as much time each day as possible:


The house glowing at night.
Each afternoon we walk the dogs, then play in the snow, then go for another evening walk in the dark.
When the snow is falling, it's just so magical.


This photo wasn't altered.  The falling snow looks so cool in this pic.


For some reason all the street lights looked green in the photos.
I wish they actually looked like this!


Another pic of the house at night.


The birds have been cleaning me out!
I think they are even happier that we're here this week than we are.

And in indoor news, here are a few more pics:


We got the gas fireplace lit in the downstairs for the first time!
It's the perfect place to dry the outdoor clothes.


Book #2 in the Mitford series - I'm really enjoying it.
These books were given to me by my mother-in-law and I think of her as I'm reading.


I'm still enjoying my Valentine's winter roses.
They're in their perfect state of rose openness now.



The evening activity for a week now?  Tri-Ominos!
My husband and son want to play something else, but I've lost every single night so far.  We can't move on to a different game until I win once.
Sorry.  (Not sorry.)

I look forward to spending future winter snowfalls here.  When the house is ready to rent, I'm sure others will as well.  I wonder what games they'll be playing?
