Woah it's June! Where has the time gone?? It seems like just 2 weeks ago I was complaining the rain would never end and just like that - sunny, blue skies and warm weather for the past 10 days. Summer is almost here! Again I have lapsed even further behind on this blog, so here is the wrap up of our February.
After a few blustery cold days it was Valentine's Day. We celebrated simply and stayed in; Jim brought the flowers and I made the best darn Shepard's pie I've ever cooked up. He loved it.

The weekend after Valentine's we went to Portes du Soleil for a ski weekend with Dorothy and Bob. Portes du Soleil is a massive ski area encompassing parts of both Switzerland and France and is about an hour and a half from Geneva. There are more than 5 resort towns and 650 km of pistes. We stayed in the town of La Chapelle-d'Abondance in France but skied both days from Morgins in Switzerland, about 15 min away. I was taking ski lessons in Morgins which was the main reason we skied in that area. But it is possible to ski between the two countries and take lifts back and forth.
