Family Tradition

This is another shot of my daughter in the home of my in-laws. They live in a charming old home in a charming city and this was taken when we visited last Christmas. We are here now for Thanksgiving and it's a lovely snowy day. We are staying out at the lake in a cute house that looks out over water and shimmery snowy trees. It's kinda like being in a tree house. It was the home of my husband's grandparents and still houses a Steinway. My honey has enjoyed practicing and helping my daughter master "Happy Birthday". We've been there, at the lake, the last couple of mornings, drinking coffee and looking out at the water and admiring the inches of snow covering railing and branches. The sunrise over the lake was amazing this morning. We saw three deer out the back windows a couple days back. This kitchen is on the second floor and the whole back wall of the kitchen are windows looking off into woods. A great place to wash dishes!

Here's hoping you are enjoying "down time" with family and friends. See you soon!
