Winter weekend

This weekend turned out to be quite nice considering that I'd spent the majority of last week feeling rather stressed and chaotic. My father came up to the Bay for a visit and we had a very relaxing, family oriented few days. Saturday Patrick, my father and I took Victoria and a friend tobogganing, to the library for some quiet afternoon reading and home again for hot chocolates. Sunday we drove out onto Lake Nippissing to watch some of the snowmobile races...lol not only was this extremely boring, but I think my ears fell off it was so cold. After the lake we went for a quick hike up Duschaney Falls, which was a little difficult due to the amount of snow, but we were troopers and made it to the first waterfall and then quickly turned around lol. It was nice to be able to enjoy the mild temperatures and the outdoors with family this weekend. Hopefully this week will follow in the same footsteps.
